When I switched back to normal password login my NAS pops up in Explorer and I can at least with username/pass map my network drives. God knows why it doesn't even show up when you login with PIN. Worth noting is that I do use PIN in Windows 8.1 too and the NAS works like a charm there so ... M$ being M$ I guess. :)
