Hi all,

I just bought a NAS (Synology DS 209).

Got i working fine on Vista, but on Windows 7 (RC7100) i get the following error message when I double click on the device in the network or when I try to map a network folder:

Windows cannot connect \\DISKSTATION

Any tips?

(Have no problem in connecting via web in W7)
