NAS not showing up (under COMPUTERS) in Network listing

I seem to recall issues with this in the past, but can't recall how I resolved them.

My wife got a new laptop a couple of months ago. On her computer you don't see the NAS (RND2110-100NAS-v2) under the list of COMPUTERS, where it can be accessed easily. I can see it on mine, and it used to be visible on her old laptop. You CAN see the NAS on her network listing, but that 's under STORAGE.

Is there some setting adjustment which needs to be made on her laptop?

THANKS

  • What is your network setting(home/public/work) on her machine?

    Same subnet? Did you enabled active discovery (it's in network connections)
  • Check the workgroup names on both the new notebook and the nas, are they the same?
  • I am not ignoring you guys, just waiting on her to get back in town so I can have a look at it!

    Thanks
