Hi all,
I received and set up my WL 500w last week, got WiFi running pronto, ditto on the print server. I hooked up my Hitachi 1 TB external to the second USB port, ran through the setup without incident. I can see the drive and its folders from my laptop, but it won't recognize my userid/password. I've gone back into the setup, deleted and recreated new userids, checked the clearance for each ID, but my login keeps showing up invalid. When I do attempt to log on, after getting the login incorrect message, it reformats the userid I entered into the laptop as "[computer name]\userid", but still won't recognize on a repeated attempt.
Any thoughts/suggestions? I feel that seeing all of the folders on the drive suggests I'm close. The drive is straight out of the box (with a pause to load it up with backed up data from an old computer), perhaps I need to create a seperate partition or reformat?
Many thanks!
