Network share access - windows 8
I just went through the set up process on my new 102
there was an update of the firmware in the process. It's now 6.22
I can browse to the default shares via http readyclould
I can connect to the default shares via windows 7 - but not via windows 8
I log onto windows 8 using a MS online account
When I try to network browse to \\readynas I am prompted for password but neither admin or the user i created (matching the w7 user) work. I get a network error message
.. I can also see the readynas via dlna as a network place.
Any thoughts or suggestions appreciated

Check the spelling of the name. Otherwise, there might be a problem with your network. To try and identify and resolve network problems, click diagnose.

I get a warming that the SSL certificate is invalid. I have been ignoring this - could it be related? - mowabiAspirantHi All
I did a factory reset and set up again... looks like I am up and running
Many thanks for your help.
No idea what I did last time - as far as I can tell - nothing different.
