Netgear in their wisdom changed the menu and took it out of advanced setup and put it under LAN setup GRRRR Anyway that is now done. Remounted the NAS, entered the login details User name & password (and yes I verified they are correct) got the confirmation of the mount then went to media expanded the NAS the expanded the Share and it tells me the folder does not exist just like before. Just in case you are wondering, yes there are files in that folder/directory. Without understanding what IS actually happening, it tells ME it can't see the directory and therefore thinks it doesn't exist. This makes me wonder if it actually logged in to the NAS. It gave no indication if it did or not so I can only assume..... dumb move. So, is it possible that it's a login issue to the NAS and the U4 just isn't telling me?
Sometimes the U4 gets out of sync with my shares if something has been rebooted or wasn't on when it last checked, etc. I force a remount when that happens. Also, if you need to change the credentials if they are wrong use: Menu>Setup>Network>Mount manager>Mountpoints management.
Select the folder on the NAS you are trying to access and make sure the username and password fields are correct. You shouldn't need to touch anything else but check the Server IP address is correct, or fix it if it is not the address you reserved for the NAS. Ditto the Server share name is critical. At this stage, I wouldn't delete the mount - just edit it and then remount it, even if it is showing as a green tick.
If no username/password is required by the folder, these fields should be blank. Otherwise, scroll down to the password field to see what it has stored for the password.
Even if you change nothing, press GREEN to save and select Yes when it asks if you want to use the new settings. This forces a remount of the folder (for me, all my available folders even if I hadn't selected them). Be patient, it's often quite slow to respond.
Try Media>Location again. Now if it still hasn't found the share, we really are getting into new territory! We may have to flush out the network files Grumpy_Geoff mentioned to clear a mismatch.
