Make sure the TC has a pure alphanumeric name.. no spaces no special characters.. same for wireless name/s same for passwords.


In the disks page make sure the workgroup is set correctly.


For the moment to find out turn on guest access to read and write.


In windows explorer address bar, type \\tcname or \\tcipaddress.. where obviously tc name is the new name you have given the TC.. or its IP address. 10.0.1.1 if at default.
