Mapping Network Drives?


Recommended Posts

I have set up my wi-fi on my K-Jam and can happily surf the net; what I want to be able to do is stream music etc over the connection. I have Resco File explorer and go to my network places and it comes up with 'Mick' when I try and map network drive it says 'cannot map network path. network resource cannot be found or you do not have permission...'

I know that the root of teh drive is shared and have tried it with firewallon and off no joy. Any helpers?

Turn on your guest account on your pc.

Any other way, opening Guess access is IMO bad.

Strange though it may seem I solved this same problem.

Couldn't get my PC to show in Resco File Explorer...

Playing about with the wireless settings, I moved the wireless slider over to Best Performance. Then on selecting 'Map Drive', like magic the PC appeared with all its shared drives ready to be selected for mapping.

Next question......

When I try to stream mp3s or videos WMP says 'the parameter is incorrect' (and it states 'error' under the filename'; interestingly, wma's play ok!?!

Any ideas???

Good Luck
