    Zyxel NAS 540 not showing correctly on Network folder


    I have 2 units of the NAS540. (1 currently disconnected) (when I had both attached what ever device was attached 2nd did not show up).
    The (or both when attempted) unit is discover-able with the manufacture starter utility. And I can access the configuration menu from starter utility. As well as through a web browser based portal.
    I have renamed device from the factory setting. (confirmed through browser maintence portal after power D & U of device)
    I have set static IP for device. ( i have tried single lan port and used link aggregate where IP addresses were confirmed with router and set as static on device)
    I have soft reset device for password and LAN configuration trying to solve this an no luck.
    I have confirmed my router sees device and confirmed the IP address set within the device.
    after a couple resets I have now gotten device to show on network but it is still showing the factory device name.
    I can map one of the folders within NAS to network drive and tested saving data, all good.
    the network drive still reflects the (\\NAS540) (W*Smile Device name in the map for w.
    but shen I access device itself it shows the assigned name I gave it in device config. called Files..

    Is there something within W10 i need to reset to show the device name correctly.?
    I only speculate that the IP and network is NOT an issues.

    This is not even address the issue when I connect the second device. I speculate that even through I adjsuted the device name of #2 within device configuration, W10 does not even display it on network since it is giving it the same default device name of NAS540.

    :)

  2. Windows 10 - NAS Drive

    I have tried updating the network drivers but in each case the message that I received was that they were the best drivers available.

    The NAS I have is a ZyXEL NAS540. I am able to access the NAS via the recommended ZyXEL NAS Starter Utility software but not from the network icon in the Windows 10 file explorer. Neither can I see my WD MyBook Live or my LG NAS both of which I was able
    to access in Window 7 & 8.

    I have two other computers connected to the network and I can view them and exchange files between them with no problem.

    I have have since read in other posts that it seems to be a common problem amongst Windows 10 users.
