  1. Hi Andy,
    please be more specific, my machines have different Windows 10 licenses (Pro/Home) and different builds (1903-2004) and these instructions are in general valid to all of these versions.

    To run network connections setup  and check connection profile type in search "explorer.exe ms-settings:network", then click on connection properties to change profile.

    To run firewall settings type in search "wf.msc"

  2. Hey,
    must admit that i almost gave up on Resilio Sync, i wasn't able to get Sync to work without relay servers (think of speed) for few years, but recently this became deal breaker and i gave it last chance.

    Sympoms: windows machine connected permanently to local network and notebooks connected by wifi => resilio sync peers not visible, or "randomly" syncing slow using relay

    Checked/investigated: routers (icmp, ap isolation), extender, digged in resilio knowledge base, checked firewall settings for resilio (upnp enabled everywhere, ports open) everything setup the way it should work!

    Then tried to ping devices between each other and found, that some of them cannot ping each under different conditions (wifi ap...), investigated firewall settings for these machines and then here it comes: you must enable ICMP4 for corresponding network/WIFI profile (private/public/domain) to make this work!

    Cause: some of my devices have used for connection to my wifi different profiles (private/public/domain) and my desktop used public wifi profile (nobody knows why) which affects WINDOWS firewall settings.

    Now it works like a charm! 

    To make this work, it will still need some effort, but RS knowlegde base needs to be updated this way at least for Windows users.

    1. check resilio sync settings (search lan enabled)

    2. ping peers not visible to each other (ipconfig.exe, ping.exe), cannot ping one, you have found one you should focus on

    3. check network connection profile (Windows - Settings - Network&Internet - Connection settings - profile), set private for localnetwork (for your home network etc)

    4. run firewall config by Settings > Update & Security > Windows Security and then Firewall & network protection. Open Windows Security settings > Advanced

    5. Allow icmp by enabling incomming rule "File and printer sharing (icmp4)" for private profile, follow step 6 in this guideline https://tunecomp.net/allow-incoming-ping-echo-request-without-disabling-windows-10-firewall/

    Even for me, lets say experienced user, could this networking stuff be confusing, the more should resilio KB be treated/updated frequently.

    Windows 10 Home/Pro, Sync 2.6.4/2.7

     

  3. This is simple incredible,  requested feature exist/existed for Android for years and it's still not available for desktop??? You guys, i know there is lot of feature requests coming, but this essential one which will allow to use sync for backup has still no priority?

    i tried enable logs on A (win7), btsync has crashed (dump sent), after that, i started btsync on A again. On B (win7) i disconnected folder and entered RW key from A, synchronization started! But, when finished, i tried modify some files on A to test additional synchronization. And it failed again with on A "out of sync" and "OK" on B. I enabled logging after cca 25mins on A and on B. After that synchronization started and finished briefly. Since then, i'm not able to reproduce this bug  :angry:

     

    A and B on the same lan, tracker and relay off, both online and connected to internet.

     

    Follow up: B was turned off for some while and then on back again, 35min ago i added new file to A, since then:

    - A is out of sync (because of new file)

    - B is "synced"

     

    Logging enabled on A and B
