storage device are shared with all of the computers on the network.

storage device through a DLNA-compliant device in your home.
Note:
The USB storage device must be formatted for NTFS or FAT.
There are three ways to access the files on your USB storage device: from the Router Settings App, by browsing your computer's network, or
