Model: Archer C7  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: Archer C7(EU)_V2_180305

Hi, I have 2 Archer C7 routers - one is v5 and the other one is v2. I'm using the v5 at home to store videos from my Xiaomi security cameras on a USB hard drive connected to my router. I've set up directories and selected NAS in Mi Home app - it works flawlessly.

I bought a v2 for my summer house to do the same thing but no matter what settings I put in USB storage tab, the xiaomi cameras won't detect the USB storage at all.

Is there some kind of difference between those two models that prevent the cameras from connecting to NAS on v2? I know the settings panel looks different but it seems like the settings are pretty much the same.

HW v2 and HW v5 are with differnt hardware and FW for sure. v2 final FW release is from 2018.

It's pretty much outdated hence the behavior you're observing in its case.
