[ET9x00] ET9000 Missing From Windows 7 Network

[The Lambton Worm]

As the title suggests I can't see the ET9000 in explorer under network. Latest version of ViX 2.4:212 installed. I can use Filezilla but not explorer. Anyone got any ideas what's wrong?

PS I have Samba installed and running on the ET9000.

Have you installed Samba and NFS on the box - in recent builds these do not come pre installed.

All working fine here

 

[The Lambton Worm]

Yes I've got NFS & Samba installed.

I've managed to rectify the problem by mapping the drive. Before I didn't need too as it appeared automatically under 'Netwrork'.

Hey i have same problem and also NFS & Samba installed, can you tell me how you mapped network drive?

cheers

Click on the Windows button then right click on Computer > Map network drive...
In the window that appears select the drive letter you want.
In Folder enter \\192.***.***.***\root\
Check the Reconnect At Logon is ticked
Click Finish and a new drive should appear under Computer in Explorer

BTW I've just updated to the latest build 558 and my ET9000 is appearing under Network on my Windows 7 machine.

I ended up having to create entries in my hosts file in c:\Windows\System32\Drivers\etc

My receiver uses a fixed IP address.

What entries did you make? I'm going nuts trying to get my ET9000 to show up in Windows 8s Explorer. It shows up sometimes but it doesn't help mapping it. Funny thing is that if I remote my PC (rdp) I can see the ET9000 in explorer, but when I'm at home i can not.

You need a line at the bottom that reads

w.x.y.z ET9000

where w.x.y.z if the fixed IP address of your receiver. (i.e. not one assigned by DHCP)

and ET9000 is what you call your receiver.

Thank you, it worked great. Finally I can see it again!
