Windows is the deafult workgrou " workgroup". I don't know how to determine the NAS workgroup, but I have no knowledge of anything ddifferent.
I can get to the RN 202 by entering the IP address and can see the shares and files.
Everyone that has access has read/write privileges.

In that case, I'd say you have a discovery issue, not a connection issue. You can access the NAS shares, but it isn't showing up in the network list. Is that correct?
