Having Difficulty With Network Drive

Hi all,

is there any better paperwork in setting up the Network Drive? I've been trying it for few days and I'm still not getting anywhere. Could someone please advice?

Here's my setup:

Hog 3 (default IP: 172.31.0.1)
2 DPs (DHCP assigned IP: 172.31.255.254 & 172.31.254.255)
1 Wireless Router (IP: 172.31.0.254)
Laptop (DHCP assigned IP: 172.31.255.253)

Network Designation folder on Laptop C:\Hog 3 (Set as shared folder)

Therefore I presume the settings should be:

IP Address: 172.31.255.253
Folder: Hog 3
User: (Should this be my laptop user account or my Wireless User Name?)
Password: Password of either Laptop or Wireless
Domain: ???

Is there any other settings that should enable on my laptop? Thanks in advance!!!

  • Hi Chris,

    I have tried the settings according to your instructions and I'm still unsuccessful. It keeps giving me the error "The action timed out".
    Even with a wired connection and a defined IP address, I'm still unsuccessful.Any other clues?

    I need to get this going as this console zip drive is broken. This is the 2nd time it broke down. Cd burning doesn't work properly as I'm unable to open with Hog 3PC or copy the file to my laptop. While waiting for the zip drive to be replace, I urgently need this feature to work.
