Create your ReadySHARE account.
Note: This step has to be initiated from your NETGEAR router. You cannot
register your router through the NETGEAR ReadySHARE Cloud
website at http://readyshare.netgear.com.

ReadySHARE Cloud user name and password.
These entries are the ReadySHARE Cloud account you created on NETGEAR website in

•This procedure registers your router and the USB device that is connected to it.
•The router with the USB storage device displays in your ReadySHARE Cloud account
only after you register it. The Internet connection between the router and the
ReadySHARE Cloud server is kept alive until you unregister it.
•You can also register the router with another account after unregistering the router
from previous account.
6. Log in to http://readyshare.netgear.com with your account.
You should see the USB device that is connected to your router. By default, all contents
of the USB device are accessible. You can create a share that is limited to any subset of
the contents with the security level you specify.
The first time you use ReadySHARE Cloud, you are asked to download a Windows client
that makes a secure connection from your computer to the router’s USB device. Log in to
this client to access the USB device from anywhere.
Note: Currently, you can download only the Windows OS client. The Mac OS
client will be ready at a later time on the website.
Note: Without this client, you can only browse your USB device contents by
clicking the + icon (Add Share) on the website. You are not able to
open files nor can you change them.
