Readyshare is not accessible.

Thanks.

For me i know its not the computer because i have Windows 10, Windows 7, Server 2008 and Server 2012, none can access share or router interface. The funny thing is if i reboot the router it works for about 3 mins then nothing. Everything else works fine, i can browse the internet from machine and machines can see each other on the network.

This works for me. Thanks for the steps/instructions

I am using Netgear X4S D7800 with Windows 10 version 1607

This absolutely worked for me!

The one thing to say is that when you create the Windows Credential - you must enter a user name and password, and...

1. I had to configure readyshare itself to allow read and write access to a username - i selected admin.

2. The windows credential required the router username "admin" and the password for admin. I tried my windows username and password, and i was able to connect to map the drive, but not open the contents of it. With admin and the password, i was able to get it to work!

This seems to be working for everyone else - maybe I'm not doing this correctly.

For network address I am just typing in "\\READYSHARE" and for username "admin" and password is my password to get into readyshare per usual.

This worked.

It took over 60 minutes to find this solution. So annoyed with the manufactures that they don't have a fix in the firmware and that it was so hard to find this fix.

Worked great for me after I entered my Microsoft account and password! I am using a MS Account and not local.

Thank  you. Your Manage Credentials fixed the problem. I'm not sure way, but it took weeks of searching for a resolution. When you do run\\readyshare as directed the error message one gets makes no mention of credentials only permissions.

So if I may:

Go to Control Panel

Select "User Accounts

Select "Manage your credentials" (left side, first option)

Select "Windows Credentials"

Click on "Add a Windows Credetial" (first line,blue text)

Enter \\readyshare in the top box

Enter your user name in the center box

Enter your password in the bottom box

Click "OK"

Close Credential window

One of my devices found readyshare immediately, while the other need me to run \\readyshare. Both now can access my external hard drive wirelessly.

Again thanks.

Had to re-install Windows 10 Pro. Opened File Explorer and can see this computer but not "READYSHARE".

Did what was suggested and went to Control Panal > Credential Manager & clicked on Windows Credentials.

Clicked on Add a Windows credential & the three boxes showed up.

copy/pasted "\\readyshare" in the first box.

User name: I put the routerlogin.net name and its password.

Did not work.

I do not have a "windows user name" or password. Someone else stated to put in the login that is used when signing in. But I do not have that either. Mine goes right to the desktop.

Just because Windows has to be or is re-installed, it should not be very hard to setup "READYSHARE".

So why is it??

This did not work for me.

I have Windows 10.   Adding "a new windows credential" as mentioned above did not work for me but it got me close!   I also had to delete all of the existing windows credentials that were created by windows for my router.   As soon as I did that, it worked.   I am guessing I had changed a lot of things on the router and my existing settings were not updated (router name, ip address, etc.)
