WDMyCloud problem with mounting(WD didn't accept login and password) network drives on Windows 7

Recently found that my NAS storage doesn't want to accept my credentials.
I checked my NAS dashboard and it's working. I can log in and use it through WD application .


During investigation I found that in net use I have two shares with the same name:
C:\Users\XXX>net use
New connections will be remembered.

Status       Local     Remote                    Network

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
                            \\WDMyCloud\XXX      Microsoft Windows Network
                            \\192.168.0.111\XXX      Microsoft Windows Network
OK           Z:        \\17.0.0.110\Public       Microsoft Windows Network
The command completed successfully.

Solution was simple remove both shares" \\WDMyCloud\XXX"
net use  \\WDMyCloud\XXX /delete
net use  \\192.168.0.111\XXX /delete

After I made the step above  I was able to mount my personal share.
