Thanks for the reply, Joany.

Re-reading my post, perhaps I didn't express myself clearly... I am not trying to browse files from the laptop but move/copy them to the laptop folder referenced by the STB Daemon across the network connection from the TM.

I use the USB menu File Manager on the TM, can see the IP connection I set up (but can't see any files within that drive as I get the error message). If I select a recording (on the internal HDD on the TM) and choose copy, when I then try to paste it to the network drive being served by the STB Daemon, I get the 'Not ready message'.

This makes me think the STB Daemon which appears to be running actively on the laptop, is not reachable or readable by the TM network connection.
