I recently scraped this Linksys for this D-Link. That Linksys was one of the early Draft N models, and it was flakey from day one and I should have returned it. I finally had enough, booted it for the D-Link. I’m much happier now. Not sure I’ll ever go back to Linksys.
As soon as I was up and running with my new router I discovered that none of the machines on my network were connected to the WHS even though it appeared to be online and running fine. IP information about the location is baked into each of the client computers that are connecting to the WHS. Obviously with the router switch, the IP to my WHS on my network changed. Hence, the client being unable to connect.
Luckily, MS was smart enough to include a utility for this. One of the client machine on your network (with the WHS Connector installed), navigate to C:\Program Files\Windows Home Server\Discovery.exe and run it.
Discover.exe will scan your network looking for your home server. Here is the flow you’ll go through:
This is repair the client machine to the server and you should be back in business
