How to configure your router’s storage for remote access

For E3200, E4200

Why would I need to access my router’s storage remotely? If your router’s storage is set up for remote access, you can access your files anywhere you have an Internet connection. To do this, you must enable the router’s built-in FTP (File Transfer Protocol) server. After your router is set up, you can access files from anywhere by using either a web browser or FTP software.

To set up your router for remote file access, you need to:

1.Configure the FTP server

2.Select folders (or the entire drive) to share and set access rights for those folders

How to configure the FTP server

To configure the FTP server:

Storage > FTP Server

1.Log into the browser-based utility (see “How to open the browser-based utility” on page 21).

2.Click the Storage tab, then click the FTP Server page.
