I’ve had something similar happening to me. If I power mine off, I can then see it, log in, do anything to it, and download from it with the mobile app. BUT after an hour or less I can no longer access the drive via the network. It says the network path is not found and the remote device won’t accept the connection.
Strangely enough, I can still access the drive through the ‘share’ under ‘This PC’. I can play files. I dont’ think it will let me copy or write to it though. As I said though, I can’t use the mobile apps to access the drive. They all say, “Unable to access device.”
Did you figure anything out that fixed this issue? Did the Static IP work? I’d really like to not have to keep restarting anytime I want to get a movie onto my ipad or phone.
Thanks in advance for any help from you or anyone else.
