Configuration and Management

process is totally automatic and there are no configuration parameters that can be set, other than renaming the shared resources.

The Ericsson W3x uses a relatively low powered processor and is not designed to be a multi tasking platform. This means that you may experience problems during high load situations such as simultaneously downloading a large file through the mobile network and printing a large document or copying a large file to/from a shared storage device mounted on the Ericsson W3x. Don’t expect to have full performance on all simultaneous tasks.

3.8.1.1Safe Removal of a USB Device

Before removing a USB device from the Ericsson W3x wait until the activity LED (if any) on the device stops blinking or wait some 30 seconds to be sure there is not any ongoing/remaining write operations to be made.

3.8.2Host Name and Workgroup

All devices on the LAN/WLAN that want to access a USB shared storage device or printer must belong to the same workgroup as the Ericsson W3x.
