Additional Troubleshooting Steps
If you still cannot access your shared drive, and you are certain you are connected via VPN try the following:
- Check your WiFi signal - If you have a weak WiFi signal the VPN may have a hard time staying connected and allowing you to view the shared drive. If this is the case try finding a better internet connection.
- Make sure you still have access to the shared drive - Most shared drives require users have permissions to view them. If you do not have permission to access information in a shared drive you will usually get an error when trying to open the drive. If this occurs please put in a detailed HappyFox ticket that includes the drive you are having trouble with.
- Request further support - If you are still unable to access a shared drive off network, please submit a Happyfox Ticket.
If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to our Support Center via a HappyFox ticket or by calling 719-520-2211.
