Cannot Access School Network Drive
Apr 22, 2013
My school have a couple of public network drives like one containing all the network printers the school own. But when i am trying to access this drive through my lenovo laptop by typing a command in run \addressname. I receive an error from windows telling me: "You cannot access \addressname | Check the spelling of the name. Otherwise, there might be a problem with a problem with your network. To try to identify and resolve network problem, click Diagnose" after a couple of minutes.

I have recently purchased one of the new ASUS RT-AC66U routers and this router comes with the new aicloud feature. This feature allows you to remotely connect into the router and access any external drive attached as well as your computers shared folders.My issue arises due my location. I live on a school campus and with this being the case, setting up an IP address that is static and is available from everywhere is not really possible. I have my router which I can setup with a static number but the school breaks theirs down so mine will never stay that wayI am trying to see if there is a way to make an address static using an update feature or something of that nature to constantly have a new IP when mine changes.

How do I audit a network PC to see what it has on it or delete what does not need to be there. If I do it through the Windows add or remove they re-install. In the old days I could do it in DOS and then 'Tree' to list the properties and then delete what I wanted permanently.

If I want to access my work files and folders from home for free, what I will have to set up. I know about VPN but it costs money. I know about remote desktop also, but I don't prefer this. I just want to access files in my computer like a local network, or at least I should be able to download and view the files and folders as in FTP.

I have a Samsung TV, which I can use to stream media from my computer. I also have a Western Digital My Book Essential external hard drive connected via my router. I was wondering if it was possible to access media on that drive, even when the computer is off (that's the goal here).

win xp I work at a junior high school. A lot of the computers are part of a work group so they can share printers.
I'm having problems connecting to a printer. It has worked for a long time, it's still my default printer, but when I try to access it, it gives me a spooling error.
Now here's why I think it's a network problem.I can't access the main computer's network location (the one hooked up directly to the printer). All the other computers come up on the networkjust fine. And the one in question is only able to access very few computers in the network browser. let me simplify:
computer A/ brother printershared computer B/no longer sees A on network A/ sees only a small portion of other computers on network B/ sees all computers but A
Again, I don't think it's a spooler problem. It probably gives that error because it's a default printer with a lost connection.

I am trying to connect my wireless router into the wired ethernet so that i can create a private wireless network for our room. The thing is, my school realizes what you are trying to do and your browser only displays "you are attempting to access (college.edu) network on an unauthorized wireless network. My friend has made it work by turning off the dhcp with his airport extreme and setting it to create new network instead of extend, but after I turn off dhcp I dont know what i should put in for a static ip/ dns/ what to do at all. I can look at all the connections with ipconfig/all , I just don't know the magic things to put in after turning off dhcp to make this work. I have a netgear wireless wndr 3400 n600 router.

I work at a small private school that is going to implement about 20 ipads for classes. Students bring their ipods and iphones and are connecting to the existing unsecured wireless access points and are taking up the remaining IP addresses in the DHCP scope. I am running out of IP addresses and was wondering if I could set up a VLAN using the Cisco WRVS4400N for all of these wireless devices the students will be using. I plan to pull out all unsecured wireless AP's and replace with what ever solution we come up with. I will need about 6 access points/routers to cover the entire school. There is not a lot of money for technology and the ipods were donated. I have never set up a VLAN before. Is there an inexpensive way to allow the students with their personal ipads/ipods and the 20 ipads owned by the school to connect to a VLAN to keep from using up our DHCP IP addresses from the server.

eg.
--- wired
~~~ wireless
modem-----netgear~~~~~~tplink----network drive
What i would like to achive is to be able to connect to the netgear router wirelessly and have access to the network drive attached to tplink router.I have tried a client bridge on the dd wrt firmware but this does not work at all. I have read that i need to setup a VPN on the dd wrt but i can find anything on how to do this when trying to access a drive on a second level.

I've tried looking for solutions on the windows seven forums and all over Google but none of them worked.The problem is, sometimes I get an "Unidentified Network, No Internet Access" error on my laptop (wireless). When this happens, the lan speed drops to 1.0 mbps and I get the "No Data Received" error when I try to load pages.My internet is on fine and my brother can access the internet fine on a desktop which is wired to the router and modem. My mom's notebook sometimes gets this error as well.
Is there any real solution for this problem or known compatibility problems between my WRT54G (version 1.1 I think) and Windows 7? Really need a solution to this, before I had to re-setup my whole connection, I didn't get such a problem. My laptop doesn't get the error in the school network either.

I'm trying map the USB hard drive connected to my EA4500 router as a network drive in Windows 7, and it works perfectly until I enable secure folder access on the router.
After enabling secure folder access, and not changing any other settings on the router I first unmount the drive since it was set up without credentials and doesn't work that way any more. When I try to remap the drive I use the same address, but select "Connect using different credentials" When it prompts me for the log in info I try using the router admin account, but it fails to connect. Windows network diagnostics tells me the device refused the connection. I proceeded to set up an account on the router under the folder access settings with the same username, and password I use on my computer, and tried to connect it without checking "Connect using different credentials" (And typing them in manually if that matters) with the same results.
Even with secure folder access enabled I can still reach the drive just fine by typing "ftp://192.168.1.1/" into file explorer. It prompts me for a username and password, I put in the admin credentials, and I'm in. Even the account I created with the same username/password as my computer works this way.
After disabling secure folder access everything works perfectly fine again... I would MUCH rather do this with it though.
Following these directions: [URL] When clicking the browse button the router shows up when secure folder access is disabled, but does not after it is enabled. I've looked through my windows sharing settings, and haven't noticed anything that should cause problems, pretty much everything is enabled. I've also tried turning off my firewall with no success.

I have a windows 7 desktop with an SSD and regular mechanical hard drive where I keep my data. I also have a laptop with a small SSD as well. I wanted to keep the laptop free of non-critical data so I decided to setup a file share between my desktop (Windows 7 home prem) and my laptop (Windows 7 pro). I was able share the files and navigate to my desktop through my laptop. I successfully mapped the folder as a network drive and all was well. Then I rebooted and I was disconnected from it, it remembered that it was there but I needed to manually connect to it and I needed to provide my login credentials. There is no password just a username.
What is causing this and is there a way to get around this? Also is there a way to set a timeout because if my desktop is not on and I want to use my laptop, the boot times are much longer compared to when I don't have the mapped network drive on my laptop at all.

I'm trying to see if I can fix my friend's NAS which apparently has some pretty important data on it that wasn't saved anywhere else. They actually had the Geeksquad look at it and they've come to the same conclusion I have so far, but I figured I would ask the internet before I gave the thing back to them and said Geeksquad was right.
Anyways, they have this 5 drive RAIDed NAS which apparently just stopped showing up on their network. I borrowed it from them to see if I could figure it out. It turns on just fine and my router assigns it an IP address, but the IP address just takes me to a blank LaCie dashboard screen. It's weird because it's clearly running it's web server because it's just a gray background with an empty white box and "(c) LaCie 2010" at the bottom. No content at all.
Additionally, I tried installing the LaCie Network Assistant on my home computer and it says it cannot find any network disks. I've tried the "wake up a device" where I enter the mac address, but that doesn't do anything.
All the lights are solid blue on the front and over all the drives so it doesn't appear a drive has failed or something. Even so, that wouldn't really explain the blank dashboard right?

How can I bypass the proxy of my school? I cannot access my emails since I am in the UK and my email is provided with a server in China, namely 163.com; the email means a lot to me as it is the only way I can keep in touch with my friends from my old school.

I've just replaced my ZyXEL modem router with a Belkin Play N600 Wireless Dual-band Modem Router and eventually persuaded my PC to access the internet wirelessly. BUT I now can't access the Plextor StoreX NAS drive. I just don't seem to be able to locate it although it still works on other PCs on the network.I moved the 4 ethernet cables that were connected to the ZyXEL into the corresponding 4 slots on the Belkin so the format is exactly the same as before. That is cables to: The NAS drive Other PCs, printers, scanners etc etc on Network My PC Spare cable for non-wireless laptop connection. how I can get access on my PC to the NAS.At the same time the other PCs on the network (too far away for wireless access) now cannot get internet access, although a laptop connected to the spare cable can........

I've got 3 computers. All running Windows 7 Home Premium. My desktop has an entire drive shared. I initially was having problems accessing the drive from both my HTPC and my laptop. I flushed the dns and reset winsock. reset IPv4 TCP/IP,and reset IPv6 TCP/IP.This fixed the problem from the laptop to the desktop, but the HTPC is still having problems accessing the desktop. The desktop however has no problems accessing the HTPC.Also have disabled auto tuning and the rdc.Forgot to add: Laptop is wireless the other two are wired.

I am connecting the router to a corporate network that assigns "real" IP to it (DHCP). Then I have 3 computers connecting to this router (local IP 192.168.1.2-4).Assuming I want to access a network drive named "ADrive" (on the same corporate LAN) from any of those 3 PCs, how do I do it? ("\ADrive" does not work, neither does replacing the network drive name with its IP, cannot ping either - it's like I'm on a totally separate network).

I'm currently in college, and do most things with my laptop, and I have wifi just about everywhere. It has a generous 500 GB of storage, but I'd like to store non-essential files on, an external hard drive. However, lugging around 3 TB of storage isn't exactly feasible, and with my experience with my current 1.5 TB portable drive, me running around everywhere with it bouncing in my bag is just going to abuse it until it stops functioning (which it has...)[URL]

1. Laptop wireless card works fine at home (wifi)
2. In the school wifi, it sometimes works and sometimes it doesn't work. e.g. I walk into a classroom and open my laptop, it works fine for 5 minutes and then no webpages will load for the remainder of the class and ping will not send another response.
This has happened in almost all classrooms so it can't be the location. There are some lucky times where I get wifi for the entire duration of the class.I asked several classmates beside me and no one else really had that issue so it must be my laptop. [code]

We have a user that works from home and connects to our network through a VPN when she needs to access files on our server (mapped as a shared drive.)I created a new shared folder on that same server and she can't map a drive to it. It just continuously prompts for username/password.She is running Win 7 Pro, server is Server 2008. The server is on a domain, she is not. She already has a mapped drive to a different folder on the same server as well as to a folder on another server. We are trying to map using the IP address (\IPFolder) and have tried putting the username as IPUsername and just Username with no luck. Tried mapping with net use. Found some stuff online about changing some registry values - tried that. Change the network type from "Home" to "Work" and still no luck.

We have a network drive and it's ip is 192.168.1.3. We have created different users with different permissions for each folders. I have a problem in mapping the network drive in each computer. I can map each folder in them though.I access the drive using run command \192.168.1.3 and it displays all folders. I map the folder but don't know how to map the drive itself.
