Windows 10: I can't connect Windows 11 System to our NAS server

Hello, I we recently purchased some new computers for a few staff and now they can't connect to our NAS server to scan documents from our Xerox printers. Everything else comes up in their network discovery but not that server. Everyone else in the building is able to scan except for the folks that got those new systems.Windows 11 HomeVersion 24H2OS Build 26100.4484All network discovery and file sharing options are enabled in SettingsWhen trying to connect via IP, other devices on the network will appear but not this NAS Server. When attempting to connect you can also occasionally see a subfold

File Transfer Speed from Windows 11 to Synology NAS is VERY SLOW vs. Windows 10

I have a new Windows 11 PC and I'm noticing that the file sharing to my Synology NAS is very slow vs when I transferred files from my older Windows 10 PC.

File Transfer Speeds:

• Windows 11 to NAS (DS1520+) = 11.5 MB/s
  
• Windows 11 to Windows 10 = 112 MB/s (much faster)
  
• File size = 30GB
  

Note:

• Windows PCs and NAS are all Ethernet connected on 1GB home network.
  
• Running: Windows 11 Pro 23H2
  
• Running: DSM 7.2.1-69057 Update 5
  

Any suggestions on how to speed this up would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Can't find NAS in Network Discovery in Windows Explorer

I followed this tutorial and set up my OpenVPN Server and bound my NAS to it so that in order to access my NAS one would either have to be connected to my LAN or if they're outside my LAN then they'd have to be connected to my OpenVPN Server first All works fine BUT I can't discover my NAS (its hostname) in Windows Explorer -> Network (discovery?) FTP and printer sharing are enabled in the network settings in Windows. I followed every single step of the tutorial

 

Accessing Windows FROM NAS servers -- Windows latest update

Hi there
can anybody suggest what needs to be done to access windows files FROM Nas servers (running SAMBA). The latest version of windows seems to have broken connections -- now just get message timeout on server when trying to access Windows shares FROM a NAS server.

No problem with windows accessing the NAS server shares (i.e FROM windows TO Nas problem is NAS TO WINDOWS). Computer name is seen in the network map and ping is OK.

people have suggested it's because Windows has depreciated the way it handles SMB connected files (or CIF).

Is there ANYWAY to make this working again.

The crazy thing is that ANDROID devices seem to have no problem -- for example I have some music files on Windows which I access from a Samsung S8 phone via a program called SambaPlayer (VLC for android also works) and play via blue tooth to a small Bose mini 10 speaker.

I need the server to be able to handle Windows files as I run the backups from the server . Even if I run the backups locally on Windows via macrium I'd like the server to automatically upload these files to the server.
Before the last update Windows had no problems -- seems every update or so breaks windows networking.

I don't use logon domains, profiles etc etc --simple HOME network with a few Windows laptops etc.

Cheers
