Have you tried the adding the domain in the credentials?<br />

If you're on a network that has a domain, you can add that.<br />

Also check in advanced network settings that Network Discovery is switched on.

I am trying to map a network drive on a Dell Inspiron laptop. I have network sharing turned on, and permissions set appropriately. I can see the particular network drive I am trying to map to, but repeatedly it rejects the credentials and I am positive I am using the proper ones. I have even tried my admin login and also several other user's credentials that are able to map to the drive. Does anyone have any suggestions? Is there something I am missing here? Thanks!

Typically, networking hardware includes gateways, routers, network bridges, modems, wireless access points, networking cables, line drivers, switches, hubs, and repeaters. But it also includes hybrid network devices such as multilayer switches, protocol converters, bridge routers, proxy servers, firewalls, network address translators, multiplexers, network interface controllers, wireless network interface controllers, ISDN terminal adapters and other related hardware.
