5.1Accessing a Portable Storage Device Using the FTP Client

4.In User name and Password, enter a user name and password for the FTP server.

For security reasons or to make the password easy to remember, you can change the user name and password for the FTP server.

5.Enter a server port number (default is 21) in the Port text box.

6.Click Submit to save the settings.

Step 3 Start the FTP client, and access the HG630a's LAN IP address through the FTP server.
