If you are not using a DHCP server on your network, make
sure that your PC and the Shared Storage Drive are in the
same IP address range (Example: 192.168.1.1 to
192.168.1.254), and that they are using the same Subnet
Mask (Example: 255.255.255.0).
2. My Shared Storage Drive is detected but I cannot
see it in Network Neighborhood.
Go to
Start > Search
. Choose
Computers or people
, then
A computer on the network
and then enter the name or network
ID of your Shared Storage drive (Example: MSS-000335).
The Network ID is located on the back of your
Shared Storage Drive.
In Windows 2000, go to Files and Folders and use the "Search for a
Computer" option.
If that does not work, choose the Network option of the Control
Panel to check that a TCP/IP protocol is installed. If it isn’t installed,
use Add - Protocol - Microsoft - TCP/IP to install it. In Windows
2000, click Install, not Add.
Check the network bindings. First, make sure that the TCP/IP
protocol is bound to your network card (NIC). Then, in the
Control
Panel
, select your network card and click
Properties
, and select
the
Bindings
tab. Make sure
TCP/IP
is bound (checked).
If you don’t have a router on your network, make sure that your PC
and the Shared Storage Drive are in the same IP address range
(Example: 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.1.254), and that they are using
the same Subnet Mask (Example: 255.255.255.0).
If you do have a router running DHCP, check that your Gateway IP
Address is set correctly. Ask your network administrator for the
correct value.
