You need to obtain and read the manual for your router, this should tell you how your router shares the USB. If you run 'smbclient -L 192.168.1.1' and then press the 'Enter' key when prompted for the password, do you get something like this: Domain=[PNHUB1] OS=[] Server=[] Sharename Type Comment --------- ---- ------- USB1 Disk Cruzer Force (Rev: 1.00) IPC$ IPC IPC Service (Plusnet Hub One File Server) Domain=[PNHUB1] OS=[] Server=[] Server Comment --------- ------- Workgroup Master --------- ------- HOME PNHUB1 Note the 'USB1' share, this is the USB drive plugged into my router. If, when you run the 'smbclient' command, you don't get the USB drive listed, your router isn't recognising it. Rowland

What to do?... Thanks, Rodolfo

It should work as I suggested unless there is a way to add users to the router and I haver seen a router that does this. Rowland
