MyBook (White Light) Not Mapping

WD Legacy Products Other Network Drives
1

Hi All,

Running Windows XP SP3 with MyBook 1TB (White Light).  I connect the drive on my switch and run WD Discovery.  Not a problem, I can log in and configure the drive without issues, however when I click the MAP Network Drive button under the WD Discovery, nothing happens. If I create the shortcut on my desktop then try and run it, I get unexpected error, you may nor have rights.  I am logged into the XP box as an Admin.  Help Please

Maybe you should try contacting WD’s Technical Support about this. You can do so either by phone or email.

I have the exact same problem.  If I connect the MyBook direct to the PC it maps, but when installed on the router it doesn’t.  I can access the config but not the drives…

corpel, did you resolve this? I have exactly the same problem. Running win xp pro, won’t map when on the wireless network, but maps when plugged into the lan port of my laptop directly

I can’t get it to Map either… and this forum is a joke! There are people with legitimate issues, that have not recieved a response. I am taking mine back tomorrow if I don’t get an answer from their so called “Support”

BRUTAL!:angry:
