Why are computers such a pain lol.
Not sure why, the times are still synchronised but the Synology has disappeared off the Network Places on the Laptop! Can anyone suggest anything else I can try?

The Synology NAS is famous for vanishing for no apparent reason although there are multiple threads on the subject with some good fixes to fix the issue.

Hi chev
I don't think it's the Synology that's the problem, although it did happen on STUDY-PC and I fixed it.
What makes me say that is because LAPTOP doesn't see the STUDY-PC or the Synology so I think it is a network problem somewhere.
Great, do I just open cmd prompt and type in ipconfig ?

I see nothing here that would explain why this machine can't see the network connected devices.
The annoying thing is when I synced the clock last time it showed up, now it's gone again. Vaio's really are shite laptops.
