DROPBOX SYNC (status)
Hi to everyone.
After the factory default reset of my RN204 I set up the dropbox sync to save all my data.
I have 4TB of data with big files (medium size 1 to 4 GB) and it's working but the uploading to dropbox it seems not regulat. My upload speed it's not like the download, but I can't understand if sometimes the upload stops or if it start from the beginning after a NAS reboot.
Is there a way to check if the Dropbox service is working and what he is doing?

Hello Kicco,
Do you see your Dropbox files in the share of the NAS that you have set to sync with it? Or please check at https://www.dropbox.com if your files are there, I believe is it a 2-way sync.

Hi JennC,
I can see the files (they are movies. In the NAS there's also PLEX Server installed).
On dropbox side, I can see some files updated but the service seems stopped. I can't understand if it's working or not. Checking the past, it can upload a file every 4-5 hours, but now I can't see new files uploaded (2 days).
I'm looking for a dropbox manager or I would like to understand If i can see (in any way.. also SSH) what's doing.
Thanks,
Francesco.
