Sharing Files
Using the mydlink SharePort app for iPad®, iPhone®,
and iPod touch®
The mydlink SharePort app is a streamlined mobile application that allows you to conveniently stream media and share files
stored on a removable storage connected to your router. Once the router is set up, you can start the app and easily connect
from a local network or through the Internet to access your photos, videos, music, and documents. It allows you to create your
own personal cloud storage; you can upload files and photos from your mobile device to the removable storage via the app
from anywhere in the world!
Note:
In order to ensure smooth streaming performance, you will need a minimum of 2 Mbit/s upload bandwidth for your router’s Internet connection.
Streaming performance will vary depending on the quality of your Internet connection.
1. If you are connecting remotely through the mydlink SharePort app
from the Internet, you will need a
mydlink
account. Please refer to
“mydlink” on page 100 for more details.
2. Make sure the device is powered on. Then plug your USB storage
drive into the USB port of the device.
Note:
If you connect a removable storage with many files or a large capacity, it
may take a while for the router to scan and catalog your files.
