Able to ping network path but not able to map network drive on Windows 10

Pinging a network drive is one thing and mapping it is another. Pinging uses TCP/IP protocol, while Mapping requires TCP protocol and NFS Protocols.

• Verify if NFS protocols are enabled on your network drive (by default it is already enabled in Windows 10).
  
• What network drive are you using (NAS, external hard drive, etc)

 

Windows 10 ping problem with autoconfig enabled

Hi Denis,



Resetting your Wi-Fi router is one of the maintenance procedures that help refresh your network connectivity. In this way, it could eliminate latency and will return your network status like when you started using the Internet. To
resolve your concern, we suggest that you reset your TCP/IP or
Internet Protocol to its default settings. To do this, follow the instructions below:



Step #1: Run the Network troubleshooter. To diagnose your network configuration, perform the steps below:



1. Open Start menu, then click Settings icon.

2. Click Network & Internet.

3. On the left pane, click Status.

4. Click Network troubleshooter to diagnose and fix network problems.



Step #2: Perform an Internet connection reset via
Command Prompt. To do this, follow the steps below:



1. Press Windows + R to open the Run window.

2. Type cmd, then press Enter.

3. Type the following commands, then press Enter after typing each commands below:

netsh int ip reset resettcpip.txt

netsh winhttp reset proxy

netsh int ip reset

ipconfig /release

ipconfig /renew

ipconfig /flushdns

netsh winsock reset

4. Restart your PC to complete the process.



Step #3: We also suggest that you restart your router and wait for 15-30 seconds then turn it on again. Visit this link:

Fix network connection issues in Windows 10 for more troubleshooting alternatives for your Internet connection. Updating your
Ethernet adapter driver is also suggested there.



Step #4: Ping Microsoft server
then tell us the result through a screenshot.

1. Press Windows key + R to open the Run window.

2. Type cmd, then press Enter. Type ping
www.microsoft.com and press Enter.

• If you receive 4 replies, it means that your connection with the site is working properly.
  
• If you got a request time out, it means that your connection has issues.

Step #5: Disable all other anti-virus programs and enable
Windows Defender only.



Step #6: Check your Internet connection ping status and speed.
You can test it here: www.speedtest.net.



Step #7: If you are using a wireless connection, make sure that there is no interference around your area that blocks its signal. We also suggest that you must be in close proximity with your WiFi source or signal.
If all troubleshooting steps above have no avail, contact your Internet service provider for more assistance.



Let us know if the solution above works for you.

 

Able to ping network path but not able to map network drive on Windows 10

So i ran into this situation today. Computer A (Windows 7 professional) and Computer B (Windows 10) both connected to same domain.

Computer A can access network drive, but computer B cannot

This is what i tried on computer B, which has Windows 10

Verified advanced network sharing settings are enabled

Verified computer B can ping network path, but unable to map network drive

flushed DNS. Tried browsing to network drive, no good

Tried accessing network path with IPv4 address, network path, but no success

Not sure why computer B can ping the network drive but cannot map to network drive

Also verified NetBIOS is enabled.

Are there any other troubleshooting steps that i missed or what else should i check on Windows 10 about mapping network drive?
