login: <local system username>
password: <local system password>
Destination:

192.168.1.1 sounds like your router's IP address, not the PC. Are you certain this is the correct IP address?
Also, if you have a second PC you might want to see if you can access the shared D drive from there (using the same credentials).
If not, you could use a mobile app to test access to the D drive - for example goodreader for IoS, or solid file explorer for Android.
