Ready NAS 102 not recognised in Windows Explorer (Vista) since changing to NBN modem
I changed IPSs last week moving onto the NBN which meant, obviously, changing modems. Now, for some reason, while I can still login to the NAS admin page as usual, my PC won't pick up the NAS in Wind...

EXCELLENT Mr Burns!!. 🙂 That worked a treat thanks Stephen. I managed to do all that you recommended - disabled IPv6 on the new router, mapped the ReadyNAS via the Command prompt and even changed its name to something I can recognise.
I've now set up my backup shares again with the new IP address and they've all worked!! Yay.
One strange thing did occur though which had nothing to do with the ReadyNAS - I also have anApple Time Capsule which I use for second level backups and another wifi network. It also wasn't able to be found on the new network, so I mapped it again just like the ReadyNAS. It connected ok but when I tried changing the name just like I did to the ReadyNAS it wouldn't let me for some reason. Weird.
