Network Storage Link for USB 2.0 Disk Drives

Appendix A:

Troubleshooting

The Storage Link Utility cannot detect the Storage Link.

Check that the Storage Linkis properly installed, that •

the LAN connections are secure, and that the Storage

Link is powered ON.

If you are using a router, make sure that your PC and •

the Storage Link are on the same network segment.

Make sure that your PC has the TCP/IP network •

protocol installed. (See Appendix C: Windows Help for

more information.)

The Storage Link is congured, but I can’t nd it in

Network Neighborhood.

Go to the Find function in the Start menu. Choose •

Computer, then enter the Storage Link’s name. In

Windows 2000, go to Files and Folders and use the

“Search for a Computer” option.

If this doesn’t work, choose the Network option of the •

Control Panel to check that a TCP/IP protocol is installed.

If it isn’t installed, use Add - Protocol - Microsoft - TCP/

IP to install it. In Windows 2000, click Install, not Add.

Check the network bindings. First, make sure that the •

TCP/IP protocol is bound to your network card (NIC).

Then, select your network card in the Control Panel,

click Properties, and choose the Bindings tab. If TCP/IP

is not bound (checked), check it.

Make sure that the TCP/IP -> network card entry is

•

bound to the Client for Microsoft Networks service.

Select the TCP/IP entry for your network Card, click

Properties, and then choose the Bindings tab. If Client

for Microsoft Networks is not bound (checked), check

it.

If you don’t have a router, make sure that your IP •

Address is compatible with the Storage Link’s IP

Address. This means it needs to be in the same address

range (e.g. 192.168.1.3 to 192.168.1.254) and using the

same Subnet Mask (e.g. 255.255.255.0)

If you do have a router, check that your Gateway IP •

Address is set correctly. Ask your LAN administrator for

the correct value.

If you have changed the name of the Storage Link, •

change the name back to the default name.

When I click the Storage Link’s icon in Network

Neighborhood, I’m prompted for a password.

This can happen in the following situations:

Your Windows Logon name is recognized by the

•

Storage Link, but your Logon password is not. Simply

enter your password, or make your Windows password

the same as the Storage Link’s password.

Your Windows Logon name is not recognized by the •

Storage Link, defaulting you to guest access rights.

If you are not the Network Administrator, ask your

Administrator to create a user name for you. (Use the

same name as your Logon name.)

You do not have access permission for this share. •

If you are not the Network Administrator, ask your

Administrator to grant you access.
