Everytime i restart my computer or laptop the mapped drive from dns 323 always disconnect itself.   So i have to use the easy search utility tool to map the drive again.  Is this suppose to happen?  Anyone have this kind of issue beside me?   Kinda suck that if i want to access the drive i have to map it everytime my computer/laptop need to restart

Did you make a persistent connection?

Yup, that is definitely an issue with your computer and nothing really to do with the DNS-323. Whichever operating system you are using should be able to provide a persistent connection that will restore after a reboot. All Windows platforms have this support.

hmm...any idea where i should be start looking at this issue?

What operating system?

Windows XP, click the "reconnect at logon" check box when mapping the drive.

[omishi]

both PC and laptop are using win 7 64bit.

great now the dns 323 dont even show up under my network folder.   And i have it listed in the same workgroup as well.  Oh man this is starting to drive me nuts.

What firmware and what hard drives?

[irotjaf]

Did you tell the computer firewall that you are in a local network?

Is the IP of the NAS changing?

[omishi]

Is ok i manage to fix the issue.  Just have to change my workgroup name to something else beside workgroup.  After that i was able to map the drive and it can still connect itself after a reboot.  Thanks for all the help =)

Odd, my workgroup name is indeed workgroup, and I've had no issues with the DNS-323 or DNS-321 reconnecting after a boot.  That covers Windows 2K through Windows 7/64-bit versions.
