~ if I press Windows key + R, then type cmd + enter, then the IP address + enter, I get a default message "is not recognized as an internal or external command, operating program or batch file".

So can I assume that my PC is not now seeing the network device ie my Synology NAS. How to I remedy?

At the command prompt type "ping 192.168.1.87". But it looks like you can reach your Synology landing page, so it's running and accessible, just not Minimserver. From the Synology home page, have you verified minimserver is actually running? Go to Package Center and see if Minimserver is running.
