this is a common problem on mine too. When it does this, I normally go to the my network place folder and drill down to the network folder:
-My network Places (select folders view to navigate on the left)
-Entire Network
-Microsoft Windows Network
-MSHOME (or whatever your network name is)
-Find the computer sharing the folder

I got tired of this happening, so I mapped a network drive. Much better.
If you want to do this:
-In Explorer
-Tools
-Map network drive
-Browse your network for the folder and finish
