Model : Archer C8

Hardware Version : Not Clear

Firmware Version :

ISP :


Hi,

I recently bought an Archer C8 router. I attached a USB 3.0 drive to it. The problem is, I can't see that drive on my workgroup. I can access it by typing the IP address of the router, however. But its not showing up on the network neighborhood.

This is different from my ASUS router. I can see the router and the hard disk connected to it easily from my network.

As it doesn't show up on the network by default, I can't access it using my media players as well.

I already have the latest firmware installed.

Any suggestions?

Absolutely.. that's my problem too. Guess will have to wait for the updated firmware, right?

Vivian.. I'm not talking of Media Sharing. I don't want my drive as a Media Server.. rather I want it to appear on my home network like HiSpeed reported.
