Your screen grabs have to be approved by a moderator before I can see them, so this is just a guess. But did you map the drive by NAS name or by IP address? And if by IP address, do you have the NAS IP address reserved in your router (preferred) or have the NAS set to a fixed IP address? If you did map by IP and you have not assured the NAS always has the same address, it probably changed when you did the update.

It was mapped by IP and assured it was always static. I changed it to DHCP but no change.
Any more thoughts?

What ReadyNAS model do you have, and what firmware is it running?
Did you try mapping a different share? For instance, if your volume is named data, did you try entering this in CMD:
net use * /delete
net use t: \\nas-ip-address\data /user:admin nas-admin-password
That should map the full data volume to drive letter t.

Hello mdharmon01,
Have you try mapping different share of the NAS? As for the masquerade address error, can you provide a screen shot of the error.
