Title: No Shared folder in My Computer on HS-DH500GL but I have browser access
Post by: jwishy on January 13, 2010, 10:19:13 PM
   

Just like it says, I have browser access but during the install the drive failed to mapp. I would think this is an easy fix. Any suggestions?

 

Thanks

Try to map it like this.

 

Goto 'Start->'Run'. In the Run box type \\192.168.11.150 where 192.168.11.150 is the IP address of the NAS. Or, In the Run box type \\HOSTNAME where HOSTNAME is the Hostanme of the NAS. This will open a window with the shares. Right-Click on the share you wish to map and select Map Network Drive. You will then have the option to choose a drive letter. Once you have done so, click 'Finish'.

Hi Josh, I can do that and I did, my problem is that the "Share"  drive did not map automatically and is not showing up in the my computer folder. I can map folders from teh browser but I rather map the entire drive. Not to mention I woudl eventually run out of drive letters to assign to the folders. Sorry if I did not explain it good enough the first time.

 

Thanks

There is no way to map the "entire drive", you can map a share and have it contain all of your files and folders, but you cannot map all of the shares as one drive.

 

For the share to connect automatically, try setting the LS on a static IP and when you map the share make sure to check the box to "automatically reconnect at login".
