Did that. No joy. As I say, I can't even see the device on the LAN. What good are user credentials? And shouldn't "public" make it open to anyone on the LAN?

Samba server string should be router name, workgroup should match client devices, afaik. There may be some quirk or glitch where the server string and router name *has* to be DD-WRT?

Tried it with both my router name and "dd-wrt" as the server string. Still can't see it on the LAN. It's just this laptop and the router on this LAN. My wifi and the router wifi are both turned off.

As a wild guess here, what is the status of your CIFS setting? Enabled, disabled, etc.

all I can tell ya mine work perfectly fine without NO 'string' or 'workgroup'

yeahuh I can access them all just fine using WIN10 but I really have NO use for that mess
AND I access them by their name.domain cause I also have always used local DNS Cool


main gateway EA8500


other EA8500 ...yeahuh she has 2 flash drives stuck in her Wink


AND also
from my Debian machines -- this is how I access them
main gateway EA8500
smb://citadel-station-homeworld.mrjcd.com/volus-station/

other EA8500
smb://ea8500.mrjcd.com/32GBext4/
smb://ea8500.mrjcd.com/16GBext4/

of course I have them saved as 'shortcuts' in the window sidebar


# # #

in goofy winders10 you would put in the 'Network' window the routerIP
I use local DNS so I use routername.mydomain



and then iffin I click on EA8500 I see


of course I also have them saved as 'shortcuts' on the winders desktop

I never did try typing the network address or hostname into the address bar in exploder. Duh. That works! And now that I did that, it shows up under "computers". Thanks, guys!

I completely forgot about the ip address/hostname thing that @mrjcd mentioned Embarassed Glad you got it sorted. I'm sure some folks could've been much quicker on the draw had they participated Cool
