Windows 10 Network discovery broken after 6.5.2 update
Today I decided to set up some ReadyCloud shares, and discovered I needed to update my firmware to do so. The NAS then updated itself to 6.5.1. Pretty much everything (including the new cloud sha...

I see your logs are being flooded with messages relating to the WSD discovery service. I have sent you instructions on how to update to a newer version of this service.
It looks like you used to have two volumes and the NAS still has references to the volume you destroyed in its config which should be cleaned up.

Are all devices members of the same Workgroup
You could also try Disabling (Turn Off) Password-Protected sharing for ALL NETWORKS in Control Panel/Network and Sharing Centre/Advanced Sharing Settings
Also I believe you need UPnP enabled on the NAS for Readycloud to work

Thanks. ReadyCloud is working just fine without uPnP, but I tried turning it on anyhow.
I've tried turned off password protected sharing - no change.

Did you put all accounts in the same workgroup as bedlam1 suggested?
The default workgroup for PCs is WORKGROUP, but the NAS by default on old firmware was set to VOLUME. If you upgraded from such old firmware you might want to change the workgroup on the NAS to match then used by your PCs.Can you send me in your logs (see the Sending Logs link in my sig)?

Apologies! All machines were indeed on WORKGROUP, but I did not realise the NAS also had a workgroup name set. I changed this to WORKGROUP, and even restarted the NAS, but no joy.
I've just sent the logs.
It's mainly an annoyance now that I've worked out mapped drives work fine.
