Accessing NAS in windows 10

Hi. Have a Synology NAS ds211j. From My desktop computer running on Win 8.1 I can add My NAS as a net server. After upgrading my Surface Pro 2 to win 10, I see the NAS in my network and I can access it from my browser but it is not possible to connect to as a network resource.

Tried to connect as member or homegroup or as disconnected from homegroup. All other settings are the same as in windows 8 and I have also set up network sharing without password. Since I also want to use it as a printserver, which is no problem in win 8 I hope there is an answer.

Any suggestions on how to access the NAS on win 10?

Hi,

Sorry for the delay.

You may try these steps and check if it helps:

  1. Win+X -> Control Panel->Network and Sharing Center->Change Adapter Settings

  2. Right click on the Network Adapter->Properties

  3. Click to select Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4) -> Properties ->Advanced->WINS

  4. Click to select "Enable NetBIOS over TCP/IP" then click OK. If the issue persist then I suggest you to post your query to TechNet forum for further assistance: https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=WinPreview2015Phone%2CWinPreview2014Feedback%2CWinPreview2014Setup%2CWinPreview2014General%2Cwin10itpronetworking&filter=alltypes&sort=lastpostdesc

Also noted that using Win+X -> Control Panel -> Credential Manager -> Windows Credentials and adding the Computer name of the NAS drive along with the username and password I was wanting to connect as solved the problem
