Hi Widget82,
As discussed via PM, please check if the issue is fixed or not after assigning static DNS addresses to the NAS active interface.
If I remember correctly, the blue dot next to the Dropbox icon means that it is syncing.

Hi JohnCM_S
I typed quite along reply and then lost it as the page wouldn't let me attach the log as a txt file....
The problem has not been resolved. It took me a while to work out that I needed to download the logs to see more detail rather than looking at the summary log in the web interface.
Basically it has been presenting a load of errors over the time I have been trying to get dropbox to sync on the NAS.
These include error codes:
56
6
18
7
28
In my most recent attempt to get it to sync it repeatedly returned this error:
Nov 07 06:09:03 PottingShedNAS ng-csd[3649]: E1107 06:09:03.048760 3683 CurlHttpClient.cpp:427] Curl returned error code 18. Transferred a partial file

I have turned dropbox back on in the cloud services section and will report what errors it comes up with during the day today.
Is there a way that I can attach the error log?
Thanks for any help.

So I have had dropbox activated on the ReadyNAS this afternoon for a few hours.
This is the log that I get from it:

Hi Widget82,
You can upload the complete system logs to file-sharing site then send me the download link via PM (private message) so we can check the complete logs.
