Backup on Duo v2 and Window 7 64 bit
After reading about 15-20 posts here and elsewhere on the web and spending about 2-3 hours with the Netgear tech support staff, I figured out how to resolve the problems I was having using the Duo v2 ...

The only thing that fixed it was adding a different user. I'm not sure why that worked for my case, but I suggest those having difficulties give it a try. And, yes, I didn't want my work folder to be open to "everyone" when I take my laptop to work.
As you said, I tried "Everyone" and "a specified user" to the sharing folder for MY Win 7.
If choose "Everyone", "test connection" failed.
