Section 4 - Shareport
The mydlink SharePort™ app is a mobile application that allows you to conveniently stream media and share files stored on a
USB drive connected to your DIR-830L. Once the router is set up, you can start the app and easily connect from a local network
or through the Internet to access your photos, videos, music, and documents. The SharePort app allows you to create your own
personal cloud storage. You can upload files and photos from your mobile device to the removable storage via the app from
anywhere in the world!
Note: In order to ensure smooth streaming performance, you will need a minimum of 2 Mbit/s upload bandwidth for your router's Internet connection.
Streaming performance will vary depending on the quality of your Internet connection.
The instructions that follow are for the mydlink SharePort app for Android devices. For the mydlink SharePort app for iPad®,
iPhone®, and iPod Touch®, refer to "iOS Devices" on page 72.
Connect Remotely from the Internert
1. If you are connecting remotely through the mydlink SharePort™ app from
the Internet, you will need a mydlink account. (For more information, go to
www.mydlink.com. To set up a mydlink account, refer to "mydlink" on page
53.)
2. Make sure the DIR-830L is powered on. Then plug your USB drive into the
USB port on the back of the router.
Note: If you connect a USB drive containing many files or with a large capacity, it may take a
while for the router to scan and catalog your files.
