Can't get to log in (can only browse as guest)

I tried searching for a solution because I thought I couldn't possibly be the first one with this problem.

I have a ReadyNas Duo. Works perfectly fine on OS X Lion (with the new firmware), however, I have problems on my Windows 7 machine.

When I double-click the ReadyNas in "Network" in Explorer I only see the folders that are visible to the guest account. I don't get to put in my username and password.

Am I missing something? I did read the guides I could find on setting up the ReadyNas Duo.

Is the share configured for guest access?

I didn't really see anything called "guest share" I think?

Are you able to access the non-guest shares directly (put \\$ip\$sharename in the location bar)?

By doing that I was asked to put in my username and password. Thanks a lot!!
