How to backup/sync using FTP to ReadyNAS
Hello all, Here is my problem or need so to speak.. Will describe the setup first so we have everything as clear as possible. I've got a RN214 (ReadyNAS OS 6.5.1), with IP 192.168.10.1. I've ...

Just out of curiousity...
Is there any news about progress on fixing this issue??
It would be appreciated when Netgear fixes the FTP Backup option so it actually will connect to this silly little bugger.. :)
To be clear, I don't work for Netgear so I have no idea about what's on their bug list. You might consider opening a support case at my.netgear.com.
Reading through your posts again, I am noticing some inconsistencies in the IP Addresses. The first post has the Humax as 10.168.10.2, the screenshot shows it as 192.168.10.171.

Hi StephenB,
Sorry for the slow reply..
I knew that much that you're not working for Netgear, but any help is appreciated as stated earlier.
Please ignore any IP-inconsistencies in the text I typed, every now and then my fingers seem to be a lot bigger then I thought :)
For my own stuff at home I use only fixed IP's, only guest wireless is DHCP enabled.
All devices are on the same subnet which is.
IP: 192.168.10.[2-254]
SN: 255.255.255.0
DG: 192.168.10.1
The ReadyNAS (currently running version 6.6.1) is at 192.168.10.205, the Humax 192.168.10.171, PC1/2 and laptop (Wired NICs) are 192.168.10.110/111/112.
Any Wireless connections are either disabled on the clients or the client is configured to use LAN as primary connection (1 Gbps), wireless is just not reliable enough for a smooth job.
After the upgrade to 6.6.0 I tried to get the backup task configured but with no luck yet.
I'll have to try 6.6.1 and the (S)FTP backup task and will do exactly that either this evening or later on this week, depends a bit on how busy the box is...
I'll get back to you after the attempt to get it to run.
