Greetings,
I'm running 376.49_4 on an AC68-R. I'm trying to run Drive Snapshot backups across wireless and I'm having trouble. Drive Snapshot runs disks and networks hard, so it tends to find problems.
In a nutshell, the problem is that various errors occur at various points in the image check (sometimes just checksum errors, sometimes a windows handle is lost). This works fine on wired connections and fails on wireless connections. I've tried this on 3 routers and 2 computers and the common failure point seems to be the AC68 on wireless.
I've looked in Windows event logs and the AC68 Syslog and have found no recognizable errors at the timeframes this occurs. Just looking for any other things to look at or any settings in the router to change.
The only other item of interest is that throughput (as mesasured by LAN Speed test) shows something on the order of 60Mbps for writes to the server and 20 Mbps reads from the server (the server is wired). This seems like quite a difference and checking the image is essentially lots of reading.
It's not a terribly big deal since backups over wireless aren't exactly critical and I can use a wired connection for that.
Merlin, thanks for doing what you do. I upgraded from _42 yesterday with no issues at all (the behavior above has been happening with _42 as well).
