[SOLVED] Map a Network Drive?

[punkncat]

I have run across an interesting issue with W11. I cannot seem to map a network drive on several of the PC I installed 11 on.

For two of the PC they used the upgrade assistant. They were already mapped to this drive and it carried over. Both of them are Intel, if that matters.
Two others I installed W11 "manually", as it were. Clean install. One of them is AMD, one Intel. If I enter the network location and credentials it simply will never connect and then pop up looking for the username/password again. If I add them as a network location it works just fine.

What gives?

I'm in the process of setting up my Win 11 box (Viper, below), and mapping a network drive works just the same as it did in Win 10.

Clean install, and then a clone of that to a different drive.
Multiple maps to spaces on my NAS.

Yes, this is something I am well familiar with doing and it acts as if my user/pass is wrong as it pops back up wanting different credentials. If I simply add it as a network location, then the same access credentials that should work to map (and don't) do work for that as well as remote connection and such.
