Network Storage Drive not showing

I've got a Western Digital Mybook Live and I've just changed my router. I'm running Windows 10 and it used to appear in Network as another computer, now I can't access it that way. Can anyone tell me how to get it back on Windows. It's working fine with the IPhone app.

Thanks,

    Is it connected to the router via a cable?

    If not you need to set it up using the wifi information. usually plug the storage into the PC or router via a cable to get to the settings.
