First of: I don't know that router nor am I using it.
Scotts s2554 transmission parts manual. If you have a decently performing Wifi interface on your Mac, – 802.11ac then you could consider getting a networked attached external hard drive A drive with Wifi connectivity. The Apple Time capsule is a good example of a networked drive device that would allow you to backup over Wifi whenever your Mac is in Wifi range of the Time Capsule.

From the PlayMax manual http://www.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Product_Id=515400 you should have (installed) an application named 'Memory Safe' which should take care of backups.

But it seems that the PlayMax router is limited to USB-connected harddrives that use Windows file systems on them (like FAT32 or NTFS).
Since you mentioned that you use your backup harddisk before directly connected to your Mac I assume that it use the MacOS Extended (Journaled) file system, which the router cannot handle (page 30 of the PlayMax manual). https://punkdatsitelite.weebly.com/touch-typing-test.html.
You can reformat your backup harddisk so that it matches the requirements of the router, but that would delete everything that is on it right now.
Mac studio fix plus foundation.
