USB Storage on R6250
Firm V1.0.4.38_10.1.30 Two problems only one that needs. Somehow my router started sending out address 10.0.0.1. I don't know why. Very distracting. But what the hey. I have wanted a central File ...
I tried turning off all devices in my home and restarting device by device. It was long and tediouse. Nothing seemed to work. Everything was Netgear, so it wasn't even the name brand conflict. Whatever the problem was it was part of the original setup. Device factury resets did not even clear. It was not on the providers side either. Finally gave up and tossed the original Centurylink, Netgear modem, also the additional Netgear extender. Everything! Don't know if I had to spend $$$$>$$ for a new modem, router, and exctender, but I did.
Through the Netgear Genie (it is the same software I have had through out this process), I went to "ReadiShare". It was there that the USB storage finally apeared. Then I right clicked on the readyshare device name and was finally able to map the drive. It was th drive itself and not specificly the folder I wanted. But I will take it.
