13.6.3 Example of Accessing Your Shared Files From a Computer

You can use Windows Explorer or FTP to access the USB storage devices connected to the
NBG6816.
This example shows you how to use Microsoft's Windows XP to browse your shared files. Refer to
your operating system's documentation for how to browse your file structure.
Use Windows Explorer to Share Files
You should have enabled file sharing and create a user account (Bob/1234 for example) with read
and write access to USB 1 in the Applications > File Sharing > SAMBA screen.
Open Windows Explorer to access the connected USB device using either Windows Explorer browser
or by browsing to your workgroup.
In Windows Explorer's Address bar type a double backslash "\\" followed by the IP address of the
1
NBG6816 (the default IP address of the NBG6816 in router mode is 192.168.1.1) and press
[ENTER]. A screen asking for password authentication appears. Type the user name and password
(Bob and 1234 in this example) and click OK.
Note: Once you log into the shared folder via your NBG6816, you do not have to relogin
unless you restart your computer.
