TP are working backwards when using this router. dont use http://192.168.1.1/sharename instead use http:\\192.168.1.1\sharename

 

the slashes need to be \ not /

 

found it by accedent.

goto run enter \\192.168.1.1\sharename (sharename being the share name you set up in the router)

hit the enter button and a login box will appear. enter your username and password (the ones you set up for sharing the usb device)

hit enter again and the usd device will open in a new window.
