storage Manager
The Storage Manager is an application that provides easy access to
your USB storage device . Once this is installed, your storage device
will appear as a drive letter (e .g ., D:\) in your “My Computer” folder .
You may read and write to this drive as if it were directly attached to
your computer . Note that the Router currently supports FAT, FAT32,
and NTFS file systems .
Click “Next” to install the Storage Manager application .
Click “Finish” to go back to the main menu . You may now access the
drive as if it were directly attached to your computer . Once installed,
please use the CD to install this application on all computers on
which you wish to access the storage device .
Storage Manager also allows you to safely eject the storage device
before unplugging it from your Router . This is recommended before
unplugging the USB storage device as there might be another user
on your network who is accessing the drive . Simply right-click
on the “Storage Manager” icon in the system tray and select the
appropriate button .
Alternatively, you do not need to install the Storage Manager in order to
access your storage device . Open a file explorer window and type in the
address field:
\\192 .168 .2 .1\
DeviceName
where “
DeviceName
” is the name that was
assigned to the storage device .
Your Belkin N+ Wireless Modem Router supports up to four USB
storage devices through a separate USB hub (not included) . Note that
the Router can supply a maximum of 500mA of current to the port, so
it is recommended that the hub be externally powered . Additionally,
some USB hard drives require more than 500mA and must be externally
powered to function .
