Upgraded to 6.2.2 from 6.1.9. Can't enable SMB
Nas storage: RN-102 With the 6.2.2 update I can't enable SMB in System/Settings/Services. Access on windows (windows 7/8) through the network has been lost. It's no longer apart of the network (R...

Here's what seems to have worked (I can access the NAS on the windows network again, I've yet to try users with passwords, or installing other apps.)
FIX:
Factory Reset.
I tried normal boots, OS re-install and finally factory reset.
A bit inconvenient, but seems to be working. Currently transferring data back onto the NAS.
The data that needed to be saved was transferred to an external drive via a hard drive dock connected to the esata port of the RN-102.
I did notice the estimated transfer time to complete never changed from 0.
The NAS displayed the time it spent copying, and even when it was clearly finished it's task, it never showed it was finished copying. Eventually I just cancelled because I knew the data was transferred (not large amounts of data, so there is no way it should of taken 3 hours+ and still counting) I even checked the data on a windows PC to verify files did transfer.
I've yet to try and copy files since the factory reset to an external drive, so I'm not sure if that has been fixed.
Also noted, Chrome and Opera browser seem to work better than Firefox. Firefox could never display the estimated time copying files to the external drive, while both Chrome and Opera had no issues displaying that information.
Thanks for your help on this guys.
Much appreciated!
