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 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, exFat, NTFS or HFS+.
• Before you physically disconnect a USB device from the router, safely remove it to avoid data damage: Go to
