Fritz NAS no connection
Answered
I have tried to connect my new node2 to my Fritzbox Mediaserver (actual os version).
This Mediaserver works properly with all my Win and Android devices
There is noway to connect with node2
I have tried it with
\\fritz.box\FRITZ.NAS\ST6000VN-001-2BB186-01\Musik\CD\Div Interpreten
an some variations
Without this feature node is nearly useless for me
Has anybody a solution

Using the mediaserver feature in your Fritzbox will not work.
You will have to figure out how, or if you can connect to the internal storage.
If you look in Windows Explorer and network, is the share visible there? If so, you will find your share/sharename there. -
Thank you for fast response
The path above is that, shown in win explorer - Network (paste & copy)
\\fritz.box\FRITZ.NAS\ST6000VN-001-2BB186-01\Musik\CD\Div Interpreten
The NAS Storage can be accessed by Win Explorer, VLC Player win + android
Name and PW i tried for each Fritzbox user

Could you try this if:
\\fritz.box\FRITZ.NAS\ST6000VN-001-2BB186-01\0 -
sorry
Mounting share failed (like before)

failed because it's not finding the share, or because of wrong credentials.
if you copy/paste this (\\fritz.box\FRITZ.NAS\ST6000VN-001-2BB186-01\) in windows explorer address bar, what happens then?0 -
I am going to be brutally honest here… the NAS function in the Fritz!box is rubbish, I have have one…
The path is \\fritz.nas if connecting via a computer unless changed in the config pages. From here you can then access the root of the connected drive.
Needs a user configured, NAS turned on and access granted.

OK...
I found a USB memory stick and popped some of the test MQA 2L tracks on it and plugged it into my Fritz!box. I could not add it to Bluesound so tried again but used the IP address in my case this works and the track index and playback correctly
\\192.168.178.1\fritz.nas

Is it a better way to install an raspy with kodi as NAS ?

Try the Routers IP like I did.
Kodi won’t help
Edit: You need to create another user not the Admin, and grant access

@seppi Thanks so much. This was driving me nuts - tried every single combination to no avail. You saved my day!

I have the same problem but the way Seppi did it doesn't work.
I have plugged a USB stick as NAS into my Fritzbox 6591, set a new user and password.
But when entering the path the way Seppi did, I cant get the connection.
I tried several ways, also the complete path to the folder where the music files are, but cant get connecetd.
What am I doing wrong?0 -
Is the NAS function turned on? I have a 7530 not sure if that’s any different to yours.
Can you try connecting using a PC or Mac? even just browsing the network to see if the share is shown.
0 -
Yes, the NAS function is turned on.
I also created a new user with new user password.
But maybe the path ist set wrong? I tried several ways, to point directly to the specific music folder on the USB stick and also just \\FRITZ.NAS\fritz.nas\. Also tried this with the IP instead of the name.
Nothing works. :(
Do you set the path directly to the folder where your music files are or just to the NAS?0 -
Just to the NAS, as above (your ip address may be different of course)
\\192.168.178.1\fritz.nas

Doesn't work.
I just tried to point via local shares to a folder directly to my PC. That works.
But using network shares, entering the path you told me or directly to the stick doesn't work.
Sorry, don't know how to connect my PC. What user do I need to enter?
Tried but entering my Windows username and password it doesn't work.0 -
The user you created on the Fritzbox (the user granted access to the share)
0 -
To connect my PC I type like this: \
\Computername\C:\folder
Then enter as user the user I created at the Fritzbox (who has only access to all storage connected to the Fritzbox)
Then the password.
Doesn't work.0 -
Not sure where you got that path from? it won’t work as that’s local to the PC and not the Router.
Suggest you contact AVM who will be able to assist you with your Router.

Thank you, Seppi Evans.

Best wishes
