Can't get Time Machine to work with Nighthawk
Mac OS Mojave 10.14.3
Nighthawk(R) X4S R7800
Router Firmware Version V1.0.2.62 (just updated)
I bought a new 1TB Seagate SSD external HD. I formatted it according to the instructions low...
where do I use the afp?
In Manual
- On a Mac: Go > Connect to Server >type: smb: //readyshare
In Reality smb is not fully supported by Apple change smb: to afp: and your disk will be visible and you will have stable backup.
can be afp://readyshare or afp://routerlogin.net
smb://readyshare does add readyshare to the lhs in the finder, and then I can open the timemachine.dmg and see it in the time machine config, but afp://readyshare or afp://routerlogin.net returns an error
Strange, So this mean I can't help.

Thank you. This worked for me on an R7800.
