windows 11 cannot login to NAS 316

I cannot login to NAS from windows 11 or map a drive.

I can ping the NAS from command prompt in window.

Can login to NAS from browser.

Have checked settings and don't know where to start again.

    Great.  This should also work from File Explorer with the same credentials.  Shares can also be mapped with normal NAS user credentials.

    Try entering these two commands from CMD:

     

    net use * /del /y
net use t: \\nas-ip-address\data /u:admin nas-admin-password

    of course using the real NAS IP address and admin password.  Be careful with the spaces and the two different slash characters.

     

    The first command terminates any open SMB sessions; the second attempts to map the NAS data volume to drive letter T.

        Did you use the correct IP address?

         

        Also,

        • are you using X-RAID?
        • have you changed the NAS admin password?
