    Connect how?

     

    Don't understand question. What you trying to do? Print? Share storage?

     

    Take us through the process.

     

    I usually think of this the other way round. I connect my phone to readyshare, not vice versa.

     

    Don't expect much from an R6120. It is a basic device. According to Netgear's manual for this device, not always the most reliable source of information, the LAN and WAN support only 10BASE-T or 100BASE-TX. That makes it slower than many newer internet services and most modern network hardware. This may not matter to you, but be warned that it will hobble you if you ever sign up for faster Internet. It also slows down whatever is going on in your local network. Newer devices support 1000BASE-TX.

    Visit the support pages:

    Feed in your model number and check the documentation for your hardware.

    You may have done that already. I can't tell from your message.

    I mention it because Netgear gave up on supplying paper manuals years ago and people sometimes miss the downloads.
