Hello.
Here's my configuration.
I've done some more changes (including a complete reset of the system and hard disks) but the problem persists.
Hello davidereitano,
Bidirectional or 2 way sync meaning changes made on the dropbox folder will be updated on the NAS folder and vice versa. There is an option where you can set the sync direction to "Download changes from cloud storage only" meaning only changes made on the dropbox folder will be backup on the NAS. I believe this is the goal you want to achieve based on your initial post.

NETGEAR Community TeamYes, Bidirectional is exactly what i want.
In fact, as i told, if a file is already in my Dropbox and correctly downloaded on every PC or NAS, the RN104 keeps uploading it as it isn't present.
Hello davidereitano,
For the first problem how do you check or verify that dropbox syncing some file (4 zips over 2gb each) even though there were no changes are made on both sides.
As or the second problem do you mean you are transferring a file from folder to another folder on the Readynas device? are these folder are set to sync to dropbox folder?
