New TP-Link user here, I just got the TP-Link Archer C5400X. Previously I had a Netgear Nighthawk X10 and it had something called the Plex Media Server which allows me to install an app on my phone or tabler and then I'd be able to stream movies and see info about the movie and whatnot.

 

Now I did enable USB Sharing in my router which then gave me like an FTP Address. When entering the FTP Address in my phone or tablet in a browser, it shows me the movies just fine but the thing is, when I click on a movie, it doesn't stream it but rather download the entire movie to the phone's internal storage. I want to be able to just watch (stream) the movies without having to download them.

 

Is there a way to do that now that I don't have the Plex Media Server in my router?

Thisais great informations about Streaming movies Throughout USB. You can also streaming & download movies from many websites. Like here>>Filmywap24

@Ultra_Male 

download any file manager that has an ftp program in it. Fill in the details ie ftp address , password and username which the router usb page gives you. This is convenient to allow someone anywhere in the world to access your hard drive. Do not give them admin rights  for security.

Your  smart tv, or vlc player or nova player will see your attached hard drive as long as it is ticked in the router page.

happy days.
