Cannot Access External Storage via Home Network

[SilvaLau]

Typo on Title: I meant to say Cannot Access External Storage via Home Network.

Hello, recently I just got a new router, WRT1900AC, and wanted to set up an external drive and printer via the USB on the router.

I was able to Map the Network Drive on one of my old Laptop but somehow my newer laptop cannot find or access the Network Drive.

They are both Windows 7 Home Premium, the old one is 32 bit and the new one is 64 bit.

Anyone knows the reason why? Some configuration with my PC that blocks my access or what?

If you require more information, I'll try to provide as much as necessary.

Also... I'm having problem setting up the printer... it keeps asking me to install the driver even though I have already installed it. The printer model is HP Deskjet 2000.

I just tried mapping the network drive on my 3rd laptop and it was successful.

It's just this laptop. What is wrong with this

Make sure that you have network discovery turned on, as well as file sharing.

Should be under Network and Sharing Center -> Advanced Sharing
