I have a Dell laptop running Vista that connects by wireless to a Belkin DSL Modem Router. I have just purchased a Buffalo Linkstation Live NAS drive to store my music and other files on and have connected it directly to the router. The laptop can see the NAS drive and the files on it no problem. The trouble comes when I map a network drive to the Linkstation. As soon as I do this IE 7 refuses to connect to the internet. I just get a white screen and eventually the message that IE has stopped responding. Disconnect the mapped drive and it works fine. i need the mapped drive to enale I-tunes to connect to the music stored on the Linkstation. I would be grateful for any advice. Thanks Chris |
