CONNECTING AND CONFIGURING YOUR ROUTER

Congratulations

properly connected, your network is set up and working° You can now

surf the Internet° Click “Next” to take you back to the main menu°

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°

CONNECTING AND CONFIGURING YOUR ROUTER

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°
