Title: Help! PC no longer detecting DNS-323 (but I can log in).
Post by: peteyH on August 15, 2009, 08:06:29 AM

Everything was working fine for a while, but neither the PC nor my PS3/360 detect the DNS-323 any more. Each time I run D-Link Easy Search, it comes up with no devices. I've tried restarting the NAS and the computer, but still no luck. Even though I cannot detect the NAS, I can still log into it at its (static) IP.

Anyone encounter this before? Any tips? ???

Thanks.

I should add two things: I can map the network drive using Windows XP, and I have no firewall running. It's only the D-Link Easy Search Utility that's not working.

Thanks.

With Win7 RC you can map the drive to whatever letter you want at location \\<name of dns-323>\volume_1.

Make sure you use credentials:

User:  \username
Pass:  password

The \ before the username in my experience is essential.

Are you running the latest firmware and Easy Search utility? No anti-virus software?

do you have blue or amber light on your DNS-323?
