Hi HUMMER1987
Have you tried recreating the ReadyDR job? You will most likely to redo the exchange key and use Manual procedure. Also, instead of using the DNS can you use IP address?
Please see
We tried to replicate it on our units and seems to be working fine. I will try to check further if needed.
Hope this helps!

Hi Marc_V
Thanks for the welcome, Netgear have always provided me with good euipment and so have never had the need to reach out to the community so really apprecaite your fast response...
I am trying to configure local to remote setup.
Now between my two units I have managed to get the ReadyDR to perform succesfully however if I go to set up from the other unit and back up to the unit that can already perform the backups then I am presented with the error:
Connection Error - ReadyDR Internal Error. Please try again.
I get this when creating the job (use the DNS name) to access the other unit, enter the admin password then I get this error.
Very strange how both units are behind the same model of router, with the same settting, and the units are setup with the same setting s and firmware so really puzzling now how one works and one doesnt.
(With this said - I am now unsure if ReadyDR is the way to go as the backup that does work (260GB roughly) when it backs up it it backsup the entire amount (its been running for 40hrs)
Any thouts would be apprecaited.
Many Thanks
Tom
