USB Application
3. Now you can access the USB disk by visiting \\MyShare (for Windows) or smb://
MyShare (for Mac).
6. 2. Remote Access via FTP Server
You can access your USB disk outside the local area network.
For example:
• Share photos and other large files with your friends without logging in to (and paying
for) a photo-sharing site or email system.
• Get a safe backup for the materials for a presentation.
• Remove the files on your camera’s memory card from time to time during the journey.
Note:
If your ISP assigns a private WAN IP address (such as 192.168.x.x or 10.x.x.x), you cannot use this feature because
private addresses are not routed on the Internet.
6. 2. 1. Access the USB Disk
1. Connect Your USB Disk
Insert your USB storage device into the router’s USB port directly or using a USB
cable. Wait several seconds until the USB LED becomes solid on.
Tips:
• If you use USB hubs, make sure no more than 4 devices are connected to the router.
• If the USB storage device requires using bundled external power, make sure the external power has been
connected.
• If you use a USB hard drive, make sure its file system is FAT32 or NTFS.
• Before you physically disconnect a USB device from the router, safely remove it to avoid data damage:
Select Advanced > USB Settings > Device Settings and click
.
