Can't connect to network drive with wireless

arjimlad · 2 Weeks Ago

Hi,

I just got an Zyxel NSA-220 Plus hard drive. I have set it up according to the manual. It's nothing wrong with it, as I can use it perfectly if I use an ethernet cable.

The NSA is connected to one of the ports in Speedtouch 585 router.

I have tried to connect wireless with 3 different computers both wireless and cable, and its the same result. Works with cable, not wireless.

* The login page (to the NSA) won't show. It shows with cable. If I use wireless after this, the page shows, but only because of cache. I can log in, but i get a lot of errors, loading problems etc.
* I can map all 'shares' on the drive, but i can only observe what on them. I can not copy, paste or open any files on them.

The hard drive does not show in networks on the PC. The local IP is correct (10.0.0.5 on disk, 10.0.0.X (not 5) on pc etc.)

I have used a lot of hours trying to solve this now, and I really need som help!

Thanks in advance.

Have you had a look at Zyxel support page? There may be some info in the knowledge base that will help you...

Doesn't seems like the knowledge base is done yet. I just get "Coming Soon." on all relevant links. Nothing else than the original guide if I go to the NSA-220 Plus product page.

I run Vista, and have changed the network setting to private. Both Windows and the router firewall is turned off. The router has the following setting:

Use UPnP: Yes
Use Extended Security: No

Can you do an ipconfig /all from a pc and post the results(start search cmd then type into the box)
What is the ip of the box and the subnet mask?
Can you ping it via wireless?

Is there anything on the router some like netgear wont let you connect to pc on the network wireless unless you tick a box on the router to allow it

The cmd is in norwegian, so I had to translate it. Hopefully it is understandable:

Ok, I think I finally has found where the problem is. It must be Vista.

Vista:

* Login page works with cable.
* Login doesn't work wireless
* Can't access the shares with cable or wireless.

XP:

* Login page works.
* Can access all shares.
