Add a Network Folder on a Storage Device

You can add network folders on a storage device connected to the USB port on the router.
To add a network folder:
1. Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the network.
2. Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window opens.
3. Enter the router user name and password.
The user name is admin. The default password is password. The user name and password are
case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
4. Select ADVANCED > USB Storage > ReadySHARE.
The USB Storage (Advanced Settings) page displays.
5. In the Available Network Folders table, select a device.
If a single device is attached to the USB port, the radio button is selected automatically.
6. Click the Create Network Folder button.
The Create Network Folder window opens.
If this pop-up window does not display, your web browser might be blocking pop-ups. If it is, change the
browser settings to allow pop-ups.
7. From the USB Device menu, select the USB drive.
Note We recommend that you do not attach more than one drive to one USB port (for
example, through a USB hub).
8. Click the Browse button and in the Folder field, select the folder.
9. In the Share Name field, type the name of the share.
10. From the Read Access menu and the Write Access menu, select the settings that you want.
All–no password (the default) allows all users to access the network folder. The other option is that only
the admin user is allowed access to the network folder. The password for admin is the same one that
you use to log in to the router.
11. Click the Apply button.
The folder is added on the storage device.
12. Click the Close Window button.
The pop-up window closes.
