No changes to PC or WDLiveHub, just suddenly my PC changed the name of my network from Familynamenet to Network… thereafter I cannot upload to my WDLivehub.

BTW, I see the WDLiveHub is discontinued… does anyone have a suggestion for a replacement?  I want the HDD because there are 3 other family members who share our network, and if I stream from my PC to the TV, they are going to be toasted.  I want to play from a HDD onto my TV, basically.  The WDLiveHub is (was?) perfect.  Thanks

I reset the network share thingy, and it seems to work.  Sorry for the distraction.

I am still interested, please, in suggestions on how to replace my TV-playing-from a HDD rather than streaming over my network.  I read you can plug a USB stick into a simple WDLive… is *that* the solution?  When I tried that with a USB HDD, it took hours and hours and hours for the WDLive to register it’s contents.  And it did that each time one program ended and i wanted to select another…

You could get a network drive, like a WD MyCloud, put your media on it and share it over the network to several WD Live devices. Be pretty close to what the Hub does.
