R7000 Media Server Access Point not working

I have Frontier DSL and they give you a lovey router. I also have a Netgear R7000 router. I had the Frontier router in bridge mode and it always reverted back to Routed Bridge. When this happened I lost Internet and it was a pain to fix. So this weekend I decided to set the R7000 as an Access Point, everything works great, till I tried to access the media server.
I can access the hdd with //networkdrive/harddrive but if I try to log in using my Xbox or Blu-Ray player it says media server not connected, but it shows the media servers name.
Any ideas?

Thank you for the reply, I figured out the trouble was a bad .ReadyDLNA file, I deleted that folder and now it all works. I figured this out a couple hours ago when I hooked it to a different router.

Nothing?
Is this really a tough issue?

Hi @MyTinyTown,
Welcome to Community!
What is the firmware version of the router? When the router is set to router mode, where you able to detect the DLNA media server?
