Using XR500 and unable to connect to shared PC with file explorer
Hello, I have been working on this for awhile now, I am using the XR500 DumaOS 3.0 beta .120 build but I doubt that is the issue. I am guessing it is a DNS issue somewhere but after searching...
Hey John,
Thanks for all the information! Could you give us a better idea of your environment and where your PC and the remote PC sit in it?
Netduma-Liam Oh my, I am soooo sorryy, I responded to this a while back but it must not have gotten sent or something. Anyway I'll retype.
Ok they are 2 machines running: Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 Professional (x64) Build 19042.928 (20H2)
Asus G11CD
Digital Storm build
Modem: Motorola MB8600
Router XR500 build v2.3.2.120 beta
Everything is hardwired, cat8
The PCs are approximately 6 feet apart and the modem and router are on a table in between about 2-3 feet from either PC.
Changes to router are:
IP of router
Both PCs are set in the IP reservation table due to previous test for device manager issues on the router
DNS servers set to cloudflare and Cisco
QOS disabled per suggestion for the e-mail logs crap I have been messing with.
IPV6 enabled with auto detect
I think that is it, holler if you need more.
Thanks,
John
