Cannot access server Readyshare on iMac
I bought the Orbi router this month. It works fine except I can't connect it as a server to the Mac, and therfore cannot use it with an USB HDD.
I'm using iMac OS Sierra, and follow the recommended procedure Go>Connect to server> and type smb://readyshare or smb://192.168.1.1
I then get the message "La connexion au serveur a échoué", not even getting accesss to the window asking for admin password.
I browsed Internet for days without getting a clue what to do.
Any help? Thanks.

I do not believe Orbi supports sharing USB HDDs. I believe it only supports printer sharing via the USB at this time.

I don't believe it accepts an HDD--not for time machine nor anythign else.
Until Netgear adds this feature the only solution is to put your HDD on another device attached to the network.
