After my NAS died I had to do it with freakin Windows again.
I cannot connect to a Windows 8.1 share.
The share is open for everyone with r/w.
I can access it via every other windows client.
I tried the normal smb way and the way with typing in the IP and the sharename.
Everything gives me the time out in nearly an instant.

Worked through the smb guide for kodi.
Now I do not know what to do.

Are the computers in the same workgroup (name)? Normally I am able to browse in Kodi to the networkshare and select it from there, without any typing.
