I found it annoying, but not fatal - since I knew what the settings were supposed to be.
https://community.netgear.com/t5/ReadyNAS-Beta-Release/Backup-restore-settings-bug/m-p/1148507/highlight/true#M8769 gives more info on what is restored, but not a lot of details on what isn't. I thought there was at least one other thread on this topic, but I am not finding it now.

I tried also to manually edit the file in the backup folder, where the host name is mentioned (/tmp/config_restore_info) but nothing changed.
