The beta firmware fixed the problem. Many thanks!
For me, the problem is when I use both USB 3.0 and USB 2.0 flash drives for my ReadyCLOUD, it only shows the device attached to the USB 2.0 port. Meanwhile, the FTP service works fine as the two drivers shown properly. I don't know the problem happens due to whether my setting or the firmware bug.
R7000, BETA firmware 1.0.5.60
Hi All,
If both of you used already the beta version v1.0.5.60, please try the 2nd beta firmware below. Reset the router after the update and manually reconfigure.

The router firmware I have used since the beginning is V1.0.6.28_1.1.83. Are you suggesting that I downgrade?
Hi millerre1959,
The firmware v1.0.6.28 has been pulled out from support site due to some reported issues. I would suggest using the beta firmware.
