Connecting Buffalo network hard drive to Vista

Hi,

I just purchased an Acer running Home Vista. We have a simple home
network, Comcast modem, Linksys 2.4 Ghz 802.11g router, an a Buffalo
hd-250 Linkstation with a Canon MP-530 connected via the linkstation's
USB port.

I can ping the linkstation from Vista, so I know it's accessible via
the network. But it doesn't come up on the network view. Any ideas how
to get this working would be much appreciated!

Thanks,

Do you have your Network Name the same?
