Cannot see WL-HDD in my network

[DJans]

Hi,
I have flashed my WL-HDD to Oleg's latest firmware. Network settings and all that stuff works, I have access to the config page.

But the WL-HDD does not appear in my network. I have changed the WORKGROUP to my workgroup but I cannot see the WL-HDD from my computers.

Is there an additional step necessary to give the users access to the WL-HDD hard disk?

Regards
DJans

If you're using Olegs firmware you need to manually add and set up Samba so you can access you HDD from windows.

Have a look at WL-HDD Wiki at http://www.sprayfly.com for full details.

Hi there, I write the guides on sprayfly
After installing samba, you also have to install NMBD http://www.sprayfly.com/wiki/NMBD
to make the device "visible" in My Network Places. Otherwise, you have to know the devices "hostname".
Cheers
