usb drive on R6250 cannot see on ex6100 extender
i have a R6250 wifi router with a usb drive connected to it which i can see and use when connected wireless to router but when i connect through ex6100 wifi range extender i cannot see or connect to ...
i have solved this issue.
When you set up EX6100 as extender and you need access to whatever you have plugged in USB you must select Home (private network)
Also for information you can use 4 port USB hub on a Netgear Router R6250
Hi jonb1,
I was able to do my own test and did not encounter the issue. The devices (wireless/wired Windows 10 desktop and Android phone) that connected to the extenders network were able to access the ReadySHARE drive. Have you tried resetting either/both the extender and/or the router?
