Windows 8.1 machine can't see shares on RN104?
Hi, I have a windows 8.1 machine here and it cannot see any shares on my RN104 device. If I either go to \\hostname or \\1.2.3.4 ip address I just get Error Code 0x80070035 saying it can't find it...

Is the Windows 8.1 network connection classified as private, with network discovery turned on? Are the windows system and the NAS in the same windows workgroup?
Also, have you tried using the NAS admin credentials?
On credentials generally, windows will present its logon credentials to the NAS by default. If the user name matches one configured on the NAS (for instance "admin") but the password doesn't match, then access is denied even if anonymous access is allowed.
