    Updating the firmware to Voxel's custome firmware fixed the issue.

Can anyone else confirm this issue?

Yes SMBv1 was replaced if Time Machine app can not support version 3 of smb that may be the problem I would try the reset of the router since changes may have been made to other parts of the new firmware. Would not be the first time that a upgrade in security on a program causes issues with other older programs that have not been patched with a need update.
