OS 6.1.2 - Firstly when I try and back up system config as described on the backup tab in settings I check "everything" which turns the "download configuration archive" button to grey but I click it and nothing happens or downloads. Both IE and Firefox are the same.
..........
I have exactly the same problem with a new unit now running firmware 6.1.3 - no response on using the "Download Configuration Archive" button on FF or IE 9.
Ok, I have just talked to Netgear support about another issue with my 104 and there are issues if there is no "Data" volume in the device. Apparently many apps and functions assume that the default "Data" volume exists to use it, and possibly this backup problem is related to it as my device no longer has a volume with this name.
Of course you cannot rename an existing volume, you have to blow it away and recreate it with the "Data" name...... :(
