Accessing the Data on the USB Mass Storage
FTP (File Transfer
Protocol)
All of the computers in the network can access the data in
the USB mass storage simultaneously via FTP.
Click the name of the USB storage device in the in the “Ho-
me Network / USB Devices” menu on the “Overview of De-
vices” page or open a web browser and enter
in the address field. The folder structure of
the USB storage device is displayed in the web browser.
The data in the USB storage device can be accessed via
FTP using any FTP client.
Files from the USB storage device cannot be executed or
opened in a suitable program until they have been copied
to your computer or your local network.
USB Network
Memory
The FRITZ!Box offers you the possibility of making USB
storage devices available in the Windows network as net-
work drives. Files on the USB storage device then can be
opened and processed directly on the USB storage device.
Media Server
With this option music, image and video files on the USB
storage device can be played back by compatible devices
(streaming). The USB storage device with the media col-
lection is simply connected to the USB port on the
FRITZ!Box and a suitable playback device is linked to the
local network.
The devices automatically communicate via Universal Plug
& Play (UPnP). This technology allows the devices con-
nected to each other by cable or radio network to perform
automatic detection, recognize events, and exchange data
with each other accordingly. With UPnP AV this technology
has been expanded to audio and video contents.
With the media server, media files of all kinds of formats
can be made available from the connected USB storage
device via UPnP.
The USB network storage, media server and FTP functions
can be used only if the USB remote connection is not en-
abled for USB storage devices.
