My modem router only has 2 ethernet ports. As well as the mycloud, I have purchased the wd live tv, which needs to be connected to the network. As such I found out an old belkin n+ router modem that I had. I set up the modem router with my other laptop and established an internet connection. I then connected my main laptop and sure enough the internet was working with new belkin modem router. Unfortunately, the connection kept dropping out. I therefore reconnected my old modem/router. Everything working again. I then wanted to check if mycloud was still working. (I have transferred close to 100gb of files to the 3tb hard drive. I doulble clicked on the mycloud dashboard icon, which redirected me to 192.168.1.3 unfortunately this could not be found. I clicked onto the WD mycloud icon, which required an update. After update, I had to manually configure or find mycloud. For some reason 192.168.1.3 is no longer valid, but when I alter this to 192.168.1.5 I find mycloud ok. I can work with this, but when I click on my computer, the 3tb hard drive is listed as N drive with 192.168.1.3 as the lised name. Unfortunately, windows 7 will not allow me to rename the 3 to a 5 and will not find the drive as part of the network. :angry:
Do I need to reinstall the software? I am a little reluctant to try anything untill I can be sure. I used windows synctoy to transfer the nearly 100gb of files and I suspect that this will no longer work.
I would greatly appreciate help with this one:smiley:
