Title: Network Password required???
Post by: Platium on October 11, 2015, 03:03:24 AM

Hi,

yesterday i bought a new DNS-320L. Now i have the problem that 3 of my PC's can connect without problems with the DNS (and without any passwords). The other two show me this message:

All PC's have Windows 7 and network password for home networks is deactivated.

What should i do?

This is normal (in my setup) for NAS devices when you map as a network drive in Windows OS.

I have the same on my laptop and pc - I enter the Admin ID and the password and it allows windows to connect

The only real pain in the a$$ is that my pc doesn't remember so I have to type them every time I reboot.  I honestly believe it's do to the time delay between booting and network connection and including the "waking up" of the NAS

Other than enter your id and password you used when installing the NAS with the interface/software IDK

JUST NOTICED  on your system - in that box it states  "Enter your password to connect to: alsanchez"   so maybe you just need the password and it might "remember.  Please let us know

there is no password. My Login to the DNS ist only the username without password.

If i try this windows says to me "Access denied".

A litte bit strange is also the fact that i can use the DNS harddrives (without password required) if i mount the harddrives with the "D-Link Storage Utility(5.1.0.3)" programm. But after a restart the mounted harddrives are away...

The password to login to the DNS is not the same thing as the password into login to the network.

its a home network so there's also no password.

Sadly, that is not necessarily the case.

I have spent some time today sorting out NAS shares on a home network.
