How I got apt update and install to work (with Debian Jessie retired)
OK, so I started off creating my own local Debian repository. Not recommended -- it's a lot of work. But with a lot of Googling and experimenting, I finally got apt to work using an online source. ...

ReadyNAS OS 6 Software Version 6.10.10 - NETGEAR Support
No, 6.10.10 totally removed the GUI install, and also changed the apt configuration so it doesn't work at all.
It's worse than that, Jim...
I have a VM which (as a test) I upgraded from 6.10.8 to 6.10.10. Not only did it remove the ability to upload apps by file browser and the "available apps" tab, it also removed existing installed apps, including SMBPLUS. I didn't have Plex installed on the VM, but I assume it would do that too - and lose all my Plex configuration data...
This is a dangerous update, which could lead to loss of user (configuration) data, and I will be staying well clear on my production and backup devices (unless @sandshark or StephenB advise otherwise).

I am not seeing that on my RN102 (a test NAS which does have 6.10.10 on it). SMBPlus and Plex were both installed (though plex was turned off, and probably quite old).
SMBPlus launched correctly from the apps page. I was also able to turn Plex on, and launch it (going to the sign-on page) - but I didn't proceed any further with it.
