ReadyNAS PRO not shown in Network Win 7 64bit
I just recently switched all but one of my PCs to Windows 7 64bit. (I have one XP PC left, it's my utility & test PC.) I am not using homegroups. All of my computers show up in Windows Explorer...
OK Searching around for a fix to this same issue when i came across this thread. I have a new DUO v2 and a house full Win7 x64 machines. When i first installed the NAS, all the machines found it no problem under Computers, as well as Media Devices and Storage (which if clicked only takes you into Frontview... kind of annoying). Oddly enough I went to check the Network settings in Frontview and noticed that the Workgroup name had been changed to VOLUME from the standard WORKGROUP. I changed it back to WORKGROUP, and refreshed the Network list in Explorer and it immediately showed up in Computers. Problem solved... until a few minutes after and it was changed again to VOLUME. Anybody else seeing this behavior?
