Re: WD My Book World Edition 1TB loses network connection?

How important is the workgroup name? The workgroup name on the network drive is different than that of my desktop and laptop (They both match).

There are a few things you can check, but most likely, there is some issue with drive.

If you login to the router, you can check to see if the drive has an IP assigned. Assuming it still does, you can try to ping it and see if it is responding. To ping, simply open a command prompt window and type "ping xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx" (without the quotes - xxx's being the IP address listed in the router). This will confirm network connectivity to the device.
