The only issue is the network neighborhood?  You can access the shares and the files in them from the Win10 PCs?

 

There isn't an easy fix for the network neighborhood (and it can come and go).

 

But there are a couple of workarounds - on is to add shares as "network locations" in file explorer.  You can also put a shortcut to the NAS on the desktop.

    yes, it's the only issue.

    I can access via ip, network name, create shortcut, share etc..

    But, even if i access to the nas, the network neightbour doesn't see it.

      Understood.

       

      I've never seen a good fix posted (and this is a common Windows issue, not unique to ReadyNAS).  So I use the workarounds (mapped drives, added network locations, desktop shortcuts).
