Re: [H] Network Problems
try connecting to the severs via IP address and not system name. It's probably a workgroup or DNS issue. Also check via router and make sure it sees all the machines in the connected device list. \\IP address lopaka From: Steve Tomporowski To: hardw...@lists.hardwaregroup.com Sent: Saturday, September 3, 2016 10:12 AM Subject: [H] Network Problems The configuration is this, the router goes to a switch, which feeds the main computer, a Stora and a server running Unraid. The situation: I was copying files from the Unraid server to a USB memory on the computer when things got flaky. The connection seemed to be timing out (I wasn't watching it all the time). Finally, the computer lost all connectivity. I've restored internet access, I can access the Unraid server via a browser, but neither the unraid server or the Stora now show up in File Explorer. Refreshing network doesn't find them. I've tried several reboots, of the computer, the stora, the server, the switch and the router. Updated the router firmware, updated the computer network card drivers. File explorer remains stubborn. Anyone familiar with this? Can't seem to find anything resembling my problem on the net, so far. ThanksSteve

Re: [H] network problems with my WD Live!
Yes.. I get auto firmware updates and I OK'd the install of the one in January... maybe that is what caused it I will see if I can go back to a previous version. thanks At 05:17 AM 8/12/2013, you wrote: At 05:24 AM 11/08/2013, Winterlight wrote: I have a WD Live! that constantly looses the PC it needs to connect to on the Network.

Have you installed all the firmware updates? Back in January, I had to remove the latest firmware update and then stop installing new ones to get mine to work properly. I'm not sure if newer ones have fixed this or not. T

[H] network problems with my WD Live!
I have a WD Live! that constantly looses the PC it needs to connect to on the Network. This has been an intermittent problem since I bought it in 2010 but lately it has gotten so bad that I can only connect to Media libraries and it can't see any Network clients. It is not the network and it is not the PC. All other PCs and devices work fine on the Network including a couple of XBOXs. I can also access the WD LIVE! and manage USB drives from the PC. I just can't connect to any PCs from the WD LIVE except for media libraries. This WD Live doesn't need to connect to the internet so I am thinking of plugging a CAT5e into the WD LIVE and then right into the second unused NIC on the PC it needs to connect to. So how would I set that NIC up could I use the same IP address or should I use a different one do I have to use a crossover.. how should I go about this? Thanks
