Win Explorer not seeing all NAS drives

If I put missing NAS name in the address line in explorer I can access it.  Also if I map a drive to the missing NAS I can access with explorer using the mapped link.

This is not a new Windows issue (and not limited to NAS discovery).  Unfortunately I don't have a good solution.  I'm seeing a couple of articles describing potential "fixes", but none seem relevant to ReadyNAS.  For instance,

If you think that the number of NAS matters, you can test that idea by disconnecting one of the NAS from your network, and see if the missing NAS then shows up.

A workaround is to create network locations for each NAS after selecting "This PC" in the left pane.  The network location needs to include a share, so to access everything you would need to include the data volume. 

You can similarly create desktop shortcuts that open to the NAS - one advantage of the shortcut workaround is that you don't need to specify a share in the shortcut. 

Personally I just enter \\NASname into explorer (even though my NAS does show up in my network list).  My wife likes to use the desktop shortcuts, so I've put them on the PCs she uses.
