I figured out my problem maybe this solution will work for you. Verify that the Microsoft Client for Microsoft Networks is installed on your network adapter
If not installed use the following:
Go to your main network adapter and right click for properties and hit "install".
1. Click Add.
2. Click Client, and then click Add.
3. Click Microsoft, click Client For Microsoft Networks, and then click OK.
4. Click OK.
5. Restart
Now when you go to "my computer" and hit "network" the ReadyNAS should be discovered and clicking it will show you the shares. Mapping the drives should now work. Hope that helps someone.
