CONNECTING AND CONFIGURING YOUR ROUTER
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.
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.
