This example shows you how to use Microsoft’s Windows XP to browse your shared files. Refer to
your operating system’s documentation for how to browse your file structure.
24.8.1
Use Windows Explorer to Share Files
You should have enabled file sharing and created a user account (Bob/1234 for example) with read
and write access to USB in the
USB > SMB/CIFS
screen.
Open Windows Explorer to access the connected USB device using either Windows Explorer browser
or by browsing to your workgroup.
1
In Windows Explorer’s Address bar type a double backslash “\\” followed by the IP address of the
NBG (the default IP address of the NBG in router mode is 192.168.1.1) and press [ENTER]. A
screen asking for password authentication appears. Type the user name and password (Bob and
1234 in this example) and click
OK
.
Note: Once you log into the shared folder via your NBG, you do not have to relogin unless
you restart your computer.

You can also use the workgroup name to access files by browsing to the workgroup folder using the
folder tree on the left side of the screen. It is located under
My Network Places
. In this example
the workgroup name is the default “Workgroup”.
24.8.2
Use FTP to Share Files
You can use FTP to access the USB storage devices connected to the NBG. In this example, we use
the web browser to share files via FTP from the LAN. The way or screen you log into the FTP server
(on the NBG) varies depending on your FTP client. See your FTP client documentation for more
information.
You should have enabled file sharing and created a user account (Bob/1234 for example) with read
and write access to USB in the
USB > FTP
screen.

In your web browser’s address or URL bar type “ftp://” followed by the IP address of the NBG (the
default LAN IP address of the NBG in router mode is 192.168.1.1) and click
Go
or press [ENTER].
