Windows 7 does not reconnect to shared drives on RN10200 on boot
I have my Windows 7 machine to set to "Always wait for the network at computer startup and logon" but it still won't reconnect to the mapped drives on my ReadyNas 102 on boot, the drives have the red X on them and need to be manually clicked on to connect. Any suggestions?

There's nothing you can do on the NAS to solve this, its a windows timing thing.
The easiest answer is simply to live with it.
Alternatively, go into the windows group policy, and navigate to "Computer Configuration" -> "Administrative Templates" -> "System" -> "Group Policy" -> and set a "Startup policy processing wait time". You'll need to find a value that works (and which is short enough not to annoy you more because of the slower startup).
