Everything was working fine until I updated to version 3.14. Now it won’t connect. What can I do to trouble shoot or fix this problem? I uninstalled the program & tried to reinstall an old version (3.11.204) I still had on my PC & it still isn’t working.
UPDATE @ 4:07pm EST – 01-07-21
I just tried to create a new drive with a different login & it didn’t work either. nd3svc_WebDAV.zip (745.7 KB)
I also attached all the files you said too in my previous reply. These are just the ones that have been updated today.
From what I can tell in the WebDAV log on Synology, Netdrive has not had any activity with synology since the update. I checked my antivirus settings & allowed Netdrive just in case it was blocking the connection. Not sure I really need to do any of these things since it was working until the update though. I really need to access the remote files, so I need this fixed ASAP!!
Do you have setup instructions somewhere? I had to google how to set up NetDrive & used what I found online…
The Synology was just set up as plug & play for the most part. We initially got it to use as external storage. It wasn’t until we started moving locations that I looked for a way to access those files remotely.
Network settings–General:
Servername,
default gateway (LAN)
IPv6 default gateway.
Nothing else is checked or filled in.
The network interface is set to LAN & it says it’s connected

There’s no Traffic Protocol or Static Route DSM Settings: DSM Ports shows the HTTP & HTTPS port #'s & the box that says Automatically redirect HTTP connection to HTTPS for DSM desktop is checked
The DDNS is enabled & is being used for NetDrive because it is the only directions I found online to connect it to WebDAV. Your application doesn’t give any directions on how to set it up. I also read that it is a more secure way to use the Netdrive.
Enable DDNS Support is checked.
Service Provider: Synology
Hostname: filled in with our name

Then it says

Also, what time zone is your company in? I would like to be on here when you are available so we can trouble shoot this in real time. It seems the replies are coming after I’m done for the day, but I’m willing to get on to fix this issue.
I think the issue has more to do with my unstable internet connection?? We switched to a “whole house” in July so we have our router & 2 extensions. It has not stayed connected regularly since. It went out the evening I updated the Netdrive & threw off my WInk Hub, which I just got back onlline yesterday. My computer is connected with a wire & not wifi, but I don’t think that matters.
I will look at the setup guide & other to see what I can do before we have a session.
I am having the router moved to a new location tomorrow, so maybe they will do something to stabilize the connection while they are here.
Thanks.
I have downloaded the Any Desk & can do the remote session. I am in the US EST… I will have to get back on the computer when you are ready to do this.
It seems that I get my replies from you 2 around 7-8pm my time, so I will try to get on around then.
Anything I need to open & have ready for you? I removed the “disc” today & haven’t been able to get it back on.
I also uninstalled the program & reinstalled the 3.11 version to try it. I actually did restart the PC after the install, just haven’t upgraded it yet.
I’m going to upgrade it while I wait for your reply…
I also have two monitors… do the things you’re looking at need to be on the same monitor?
I restarted the NAS yesterday at the end of the day. I forgot to go to the office after dinner, BUT when I got on just now and tried to connect, IT WORKED!! It was the only thing I didn’t try. NAS had an update after the NetDrive issue & had to restart so I thought there was no point.
My question, is it better to leave it as a network drive or to make it local? I had it network at first & then changed it to local. I switched it to local just now as well.
Also got these emails yesterday after it was done restarting:
