I recently replaced my router with a D-Link DIR-615 Rev c1 and my scheduled incremental backups between my two DNS-343's stopped working. My previous router was a different make/model.
Symptoms:
- I've been successfully using "Schedule Downloads" to perform daily backups for almost a year now;
- After replacing the router, I modified the scheduled downloads on my destination DNS-343 to pull data from my source DNS-343. This modification was necessary b/c the IP address changed;
- Under "Schedule Download" I entered the source DNS-343 path. Running"Test" is always successful;
- The download runs (i.e. the disk icon in the "Schedule List" is working), but nothing is copied.
I assume this has something to do with the router but can't seem to isolate the issue. Can someone please help?

Can someone please comment on this? I'm wondering if this is a DNS-343 issue or a DIR-615 configuration issue.

Well, for sure it's strange.
I suppose the units are currently both in the same LAN behind the router.
Put static IPs for both DNS units.
For testing purposes put a gigabit switch in between (replace the router). See if it works. If it works with the plain switch then the culprit is the router. I'm not familiar with DIR-615 so I can't help here very much.
Maybe the gigabit switch integrated in the router it's a little picky. Try changing the patch cords with brand new cat.6.
This is all I can think of for now.

During my initial troubleshooting I swapped back the original router and everything worked fine. So the router is the cause, I'm just not sure why. Both DNS-343s see each other behind the DIR-615 and I can manually copy data between the two units through a PC that's also on the network.
