Have you tried to revert the firmware and see if it starts working again?

Hi Darren,
I tried downgrade to firmware version V1.0.2.68. ReadyCloud android app backup works well. All subsequent version up to V1.0.2.78 (the current version). Same error is reported. It's related to the firmware.
I appreciate your suggestion and possible solution to resolve this issue.

DarrenM so the official workaround is to revert to an older firmware and possibly compromise security instead of Netgear fix a long standing broken functionality?

Glad you got it working. Please mark your thread as solved so others will know. Be sure to save off a back up configuration to file for safe keeping. Saves time if a reset is needed.
