Using ReadyNAS Replicate with OS 6.5.0
I am using Replicate to backup from my RN312 to a RN104. Both devices have been upgraded from latest 6.4 to 6.5.0. I am not able to get Replicate working again. Is there some documentation? ...

Hi _frantic_,
Since you've performed FD, wait for the resync process to complete then add 8.8.8.8 DNS in the active NIC of your system. Once this is done, try to login again your old ReadyNAS Remote/Replicate ID credentials and see if it will accept it.
Kind regards,

Okay, I did a Factory Reset on my ReadyNAS 104.
I was offered to upgrade from 6.5.0 to 6.5.1, so did I.
Same problem as before - the device can not register to ReadyNAS Replicate. I get an invalid username/password message and then this:
ReadyNAS Replicate seems to be unreachable.
What is causing this? Do I need any special firewall clearance or port forwarding for Cloud Services?
Do I have to activate special services on my device? Which log files should I check?

Proper IPv4 DNS configuration is the solution.
Perhaps one can also enable IPv6. This also seems to fix DNS problems.- BrianL2Aug 04, 2016NETGEAR Employee Retired
