Network Share Issue

I’ve been fairly happy with my WD TV LIVE HD player. WD should fix the fw issues related to the “Network Share” being so intermittent if possible…yet then again…it could be a Windows issue as well.

I’ve spent hours trying to figure it out. Finally after changing the “WORKGROUP” to “WORKGROUPA” on both my Server and the WD TV live box, did my issue get resolved. I can finally access my shares. Before, nothing would happen when I pressed the enter button on the Network Shares Icon. The problem is…when I turn the WD TV live unit off, then on, I have the same issue as before, and have to change the workgroup again to make it work.

Any suggestions? I updated the code last week to most recent level.

Cheers,

I’m having the same exact issue.  I’ve reset the WD to factory default.  Rebooted it a bunch of times.  Reshared, unshared, etc.  I’ve tried this on 3 different computers and its all on the WD box.  Please help.
