Network Neighborhood not working
Network Neighborhood not working
2022-03-03 16:12:44
Model: Archer C1200  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version: 3.0.7 Build 20200831 rel.59087 (US)

As I wrote in the title, SMB/Network Neighborhood server doesn't work. FTP is working both from pc and android. Only SMB does not work. It's not just a pc issue, as I can connect to my Raspberry Pi SMB server just fine.

 

When I try to connect it shows "Windows can't access", it's also not an incorrect username/password issue because, as I said before, I can connect to the FTP both of them have the same login details.

 

Also, is it normal to not be able to delete files on the FTP server? I've connected via "Add a Network Location", as "Map as Network Drive" doesn't work on FTP.

 

I tried calling Indian TP-Link support, the person didn't know what FTP is. Facepalm...

Make sure that your file and printer sharing is turned on:

 

 

Also make sure that your wireless network profile is set to Private:

Yes both of them, network discovery and printer settings, are turned on

 

Wireless mode is also set to auto. These are not an issue, as said before, I can connect to my SMB server in raspberry pi on the same local network. It's just the router.

Try upgrading the C1200 FW with the latest release from here and see if that will make any difference.

  @terziyski It's already up to date. Do you want me to manually update still?

Yes, use Case 1 from the upgrade guide I posted and update manually to Archer C1200(US)_V3_211219 version.
