RAX200 Readyshare issue: change mount path after router reboot
Hello, I have this issue on RAX200 for a while now on different FW version. The latest one I have is 1.0.6.138. I considered raising support case, until I saw that it's required some subscriptio...
Yes.
The "Share Name" changes (like \\readyshare\M_Drive, \\readyshare\P_Drive) because the "Folder Name" changes (M:\, P:\, O:\...), same as the "Volume Name" (M Drive (460.3G) or P Drive (460.3G), or O Drive....).
It's obviously consistent like if it's M: then every naming keeps name. But it changes after every router reboot.
- Hi, I cannot provide screenshots for now.
It was just created using default readyshare options...Nothing exotic - Ok, after all, I got what you asked.
Hi UserRax200 ,
Thanks,
From the screenshot that you provided, Folder Name(M:\) and Share Name(\\readyshare\M_Drive), it looks good.
- Yes it's good.
When I reboot it will change entirely:
Folder Name(O:\) and Share Name(\\readyshare\O_Drive).
So any client where I mounted that path will complain \\readyshare\M_Drive) does not exists...
And that would be true, it's not existIng anymore.
PrOblem is the drive should not take another mount letter when router reboots and/or it should be possible to modify it manually.
Ps: I did try to umount the usb, physically diaconnect it and reconnect. The letter stays the same. It's only in router reboot that it changes.
