It was just "plug and play"ed on installation. Would this be causing the lag at start, where the user is trying to get authentication to the NAS? Where would these settings be to check this?

Thanks for your help

    On the NAS it is under accounts->authentication in the web ui.
    
    On a Windows PC, right click on "This PC" or "My Computer" and select properties.
