Per (PeteCresswell):
IPCONFIG /ALL shows an IP addr consistent with my LAN and identical to
what NetScan reports.
Maybe I should add that NET USE does not find the NAS box either:

But tha NAS box really is online... and the NetScan utility
not only shows it, but can connect to it.
It's numeric IP is 10.0.0.8 - which can the TW700 can find.... but it
cannot find it via "NAS".... so I am guessing that some sort of lookup
facility is not available to the TW700.
But what ?
I looked at Control Panel | Network-Sharing | Adapter Settings | IPV4
Props and added my router's addr (10.0.0.1) as the preferred DNS server
but no change....
