Windows 10 - NAS - HELP!

[Joebob]

Sorry for creating a new thread. I know there's already a Windows 10 thread, but that's a lot of reading and I need a quick'ish asnwer!

I've just installed Windows 10 technical preview on my laptop and now I can't see my D-Link 320 NAS drive! i've turned on Network Discovery and File and Print Sharing, but alas still nothing

As always, any help really appreciated.

Yes, it's on the same range, but it's actually assigned it's IP from the DHCP on my BT Home Hub. I guess I will have to logon to that and see what IP has been assigned...!!!

I'm not sure if the Home Hub 5 has a lease time once connection is lost - maybe I should set it up with a fixed IP?

Login to your homehub on 192.168.1.254 and check the front page. It'll give you any DHCP addresses allocated.

Type the IP it is on in the address bar on file explorer (IE \\192.168.1.100) It should then show your shares.

This worked, thanks. Although I had to add "Volume_1" to the end of the IP for it to see the media stored on the drive.
