Hi. I have the NV+ V1 here. finally got it all working good last week, my htpc could see it and access it. Then I tried my WDTV live in the rumpus room. It could not see all the file for some reason. I then did a search through these forums and found a user with the same problem and he found a fix. I followed his steps. First thing I did, which is what got me stuck I beleive is I enabled DHCP on my NAS. Then frontpage froze. I closed the browser and then went into Raidar and noticed the IP address had changed. But now it won't accept the default username and password.
How do I get this to work without losing all the data I have spent hours putting on?
Thanks.
