[QUOTE="Benzman, post: 704520, member: 63341"] Rebooted the NAS, pinged 10.0.1.255, which gave me a list of all the IP addresses in use, so I did the "arp -an" thing and there was the MAC address for the NAS. The old IP address was no longer there for the NAS, but a new one. What the...? Anyway, it connected after using the new found address. So, my questions for a guru... Is it possible Windoze (or the TC) changed the IP address of the NAS? If so, how? Maybe when I changed the "Workgroup" name? Should I use a static address for my NAS? And can I use a static address for one device and not the others? Ultimately I want to access this drive from both machines just like I did before I installed my Time Capsule. That's the only thing that's changed and it worked fine before between OS's. Thanks for the help... Michael. [/QUOTE]
