New router and Node 2 can't find my NAS

I replaced my router and now my Node 2 can't find my NAS. 

I try to enter in a share but it keeps saying 'Share URL must be in the form <b>\\computer\share</b>. Please wait...' 

Computer is your computer name, right?   You get that by right-clicking on the start button and going to system then it's the device name.   What is 'share'?   I've entered in my NAS I.P. address, my folder location    'wdmycloud\public\music' and NOTHING WORKS.

It keeps saying 'Share URL must be in the ....'  .

So what does it want????   I remember when I first set this up when it was new it found the NAS automatically.

  Yes, many times.   Result:

   

  'Share URL must be in the form <b>\\computer\share</b>. Please wait...'

  What happens if you copy \\WDMYCLOUD\Public\ and paste in a browser address bar?

  Hi Mike

  Please review your WD My Cloud Documentation and ensure you no longer have SMB 1 enabled and are running at least SMB 2.1 if not SMB 3.
