RN204 and Windows XP
Hi -
Im new a network guy - but am trying to help a friend out
windows X machine, cant see the NAS (RN204)...
other machines in his office can (win7 and win10)... so, i think RN204 is set ...
Hi,
I notice that one IP addresses is 192.168.168.110, and the other is 192.168.1.7. Now assuming that you are using /24 subnet masks (255.255.255.0), you should check your default gateways to be able to communicate (or route) between different subnets.
Can you ping the NAS from the XP machine? Can you ping the XP machines's default gateway. Is it actually configured?
Good luck,
Ian Neill
