RN-104 NAS

I have 3 x RN-104 Nas units. I have never had any issues accessing them from Windows 10. After being coerced

into updating to Windows 11 I can no longer access them. In Windows Explorer i can view the NAS units as in the picture.

When I try to access them to view the directory tree I get the following error.

I have tried the Microsoft solutions but none work.

Can someone on this forum please offer a solution.

Regards

Ian

  • Hello, I always lock my network connections down with fixed IP addresses. I have solved the issue. The problem was in the Group Settings, in the Lanman Workstation Settings.

     Thank you for your reply,

  • Does using the IP address instead of the hostame work?  (\\x.x.x.x)
