Hi Guys,

Any idea how to share USB content over the HG8245H5 router?

Network Applications / Enabling File Server didn't work for me.


Any thought?

Thanks

Hello,

To use the USB function of a Huawei ONT to implement network sharing.


1. In most cases, the default user name for logging in to the web page is root, the password is admin and the IP address is 192.168.100.1. However, for security reasons, the default password or IP address may have been changed before delivery. The nameplate prevails. Enter the IP address in the address bar of your browser.

2. Enter the default login account and password on the nameplate on the rear of the ONT and click Login.

3. In the navigation tree on the left, choose Network Applications > USB Application. In the pane on the right, set the parameters related to the FTP downloading to share the FTP file of the ONT.

Note:


The FTP server configuration supports only English.


The file time of an ONT is in the UNIX format. In Windows OS, the file time displayed may be different from the actual time for FTP access.

4. Click Download to download files from the FTP server to the USB storage device

Configuration example


Configure the USB-related parameters to share the contents on the USB storage device.


1. Insert the USB storage device to the ONT that provides a USB port. If No USB Device is displayed in USB Device, no USB storage device is identified. Remove and re-insert the USB storage device. 

2. Select Enable FTP Server and specify the User Name and Password.
