USB stick access WNDR3400v2
I have two Netgear routers, #1 a DGN2200v3, which connects to the broadband and provides some wired some WiFi access to the upper part of the house and #2 a WNDR3400v2 which provides Wifi access on t...
That fits with my experience, now you have explained it.
#1 is set to do the DHCP, #2 has DHCP turned off. Briefly when I factory reset the router this morning, its Readyshare appeared, but then disappeared as soon as I had #2 reconfigured to work with my network and its internal IP's, with the DHCP turned off.
I wonder if I might be able to run with DHCP set to on on both routers and give each router a separate range of IP's to dish out?
Welcome to the community, HarryM1BYT
Did you try resetting the unit?
How about using a different USB drive like a thumb drive?
I have made some small progress....
I was unable to use Edit to edit the properties - this was because the Readyshare setup page used popup windows and these were blocked by my browser.
I have tried rebooting and resetting several times and three different sticks and a USB HDD. All can be edited and the properties of each show on the routers setup web pages and USB LED on the front of the router goes on and off as they are plugged in, but none show on my network, other than the USB plugged into my main Netgear router.
Thinking there might be a clash of names, I called the latest one //readysharegrnd. I also tried turning off the main one, to be certain there wasn't a name clash. I also updated it to the latest firmware - nothing I have tried has helped.
