mydlink SharePort

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 device 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.

If you choose to skip the mydlink SharePort registration during the initial setup of your DSL-4320L, you may begin the registration process

anytime by accessing the mydlink SharePort feature from within the router configuration menu. Refer to page 102 for details on how to

begin the mydlink shareport registration process.

1. If you are connecting remotely through the mydlink SharePort™

app from the Internet, you will need a

mydlink

account.

2.

Make sure the device is powered on. Then plug your USB drive into

a USB port on the device.

Note:

If you connect a removable storage device with several thousand files, it

may take a while for the router to scan and catalog them.

Plug your removable storage device in either the USB 2.0 or 3.0 port.
