Rebooting your NAS and waiting a handful of minutes or so should lead to the problem being resolved.

Ok its been some days now since I posted about Plex not working on RN214 version 6.6.0
I have seen plex forums trying to sort this out.
I understand this being a third party addon to readynas.
But at the time I bought my readynas it was marketed as a great plex server.
Oddly I haven't seen any mention of work on trying to fix this, be it readynas or plex on these forums
I do suspect alot of people have bought the 214 as a plex server like I did.
Are you actually in contact with plex about this.
Do you guys talk ?

I too was burned by this update. It's taking some time to address the changes needed by Plex Server. Meanwhile, I'm down...my ReadyNAS built for media streaming sits idle.

Thanks for the reply jpcarro
Glad to see its not only me on readynas forums,
That takes the time to post here about this issue,
I don't know why, but there seems to be more activity by RN214 users on plex forum than here.
Maybe thats a note for this forum about its users preference and usage of the RN214

Netgear is on the hook to update any broken Netgear apps - I think surveillance is the only one.
The app developer/supplier is on the hook to update their apps. Some of them might choose not to. It sounds like plex is close.
