Ok I bought an Iomega 1TB network drive with Ethernet connection.

I plug it into my router.

The main PC which is hardwired into the router can see it.

My netbook which runs Windows 7 starter initially saw it but when I tried to access it it disappeared from the network list.
It's the same as with the PC sometimes the Netbook sees my PC and I can access folders, most times it doesn't see it at all.

Please help me sort this out.

The Issue is with copying files to the Iomeg drive.

I want to copy files from my netbook onto my Iomega and it starts and then says can't access the drive check you are connected which I bloody well am.

I have all permissions open but still no bloody job.
windows 7 was supposed to make this easy.

does your network drive support FTP?
the FTP protocol always makes it easy
