D6300 WiFi DSL Modem Router
Media Server Settings
By default, the modem router is set up to act as a Ready DLNA Media server, which lets you
view movies and photos on DLNA/UPnP AV–compliant media players, such as Xbox360,
Playstation, and NETGEAR’s Digital Entertainer Live.
By default the Enable Media Server check box and the Automatic (when new files are added)
radio button are selected. When these options are selected, the modem router scans for
media files whenever new files are added to the ReadySHARE USB hard drive.
