Well doesn't FAT32 have a limit of 32GB or something quite low ? It's also been pointed out that for a NAS it's better to use Ethernet connection not too overload the CPU.

USB Application -> USB General Settings

enable the Samba service and give it an appropriate Workgroup (WORKGROUP) and host name (DATA).



I'm trying to share a USB drive on a Vigor 2710Vn
Firmware Version: 3.3.2.3_232201
I find the above quote a bit confusing, as I do not see any opportunity to specify Workgroup name, host within the DrayTek config.

I configured a user who is now permitted to access a home folder, the trouble is the share does not have a name.

I know the host is 192.168.1.1 so I am able to configure that into my client what I don't know is the share name. I see no opportunity to configure a share name within the DrayTek config

Any ideas ?
