Set Up FTP Access Through the Internet
If you attach a storage device to the router, you can access the storage device from your network (see
Enable FTP Access Within Your Network
on page 79). You can also set up FTP access through the Internet
so that you can access the storage device from outside your local network, for example, when you are not
at home.
To set up FTP access through the Internet:
1.
Launch a web browser from a computer or mobile device that is connected to the network.
2.
Enter http://www.routerlogin.net.
A login window opens.
3.
Enter the router user name and password.
The user name is admin. The default password is password. The user name and password are
case-sensitive.
The BASIC Home page displays.
4.
Select ADVANCED > USB Functions > ReadySHARE Storage.
The previous figure shows a USB device attached to the router.
5.
Select the FTP (via internet) check box.
6.
Click the Apply button.
