Storage Manager also allows you to safely eject the storage device before
unplugging it from your Router. This is recommended before unplugging the USB
storage device as there might be another user on your network who is accessing
the drive. Simply right-click on the "Storage Manager" icon in the system tray and
select the appropriate button.
Alternatively, you do not need to install the Storage Manager in order to access
your storage device. Open a file explorer window and type in the address field:
\\192.168.2.1\DeviceName
where "DeviceName" is the name that was assigned to the storage device.
Your Belkin N+ Wireless Modem Router supports up to four USB storage devices
through a separate USB hub (not included). Note that the Router can supply a
maximum of 500mA of current to the port, so it is recommended that the hub be
externally powered. Additionally, some USB hard drives require more than
500mA and must be externally powered to function.
