Configuring the Advanced Settings

File server

Your device's integrated file server allows you to make folders and files on a connected USB bulk memory (e.g. USB stick or USB hard disk) available to all users in your local net- work.

ìConnect a USB data carrier to the Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable via the USB port.

Note:

The USB interface of the Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable supplies 500 –1000 mA of power. This depends on which other lines are connected. Some hard disks need more power. In this case the device must have its own mains adapter.

ìIn the Advanced Settings menu, select File Server.ìSelect the On option for the File Server.

Enter a name for the file server in the Host name field. This is shown in the network environment of each computer in your local network and allows users to find your file server.

If you assign a name other than Server (e.g. the IP address of the Gigaset SE551 WLAN dsl/cable), then the file server will appear in the Windows directory Network environment both under the name Server and under the name you have assigned.

ìYou can enter a Description of the file server in the next field.
