To set up your personal account and use FTP:
1. Get your NETGEAR Dynamic DNS domain name.
For more information, see Set Up a New Dynamic DNS Account on page 153.
2. Make sure that your Internet connection is working.
Your modem router must use a direct Internet connection. It cannot connect to a different router to
access the Internet.
3. Connect a USB storage device to one of the USB ports of the modem router.
4. If your USB device uses a power supply, connect it.
You must use the power supply when you connect the USB device to the modem router.
When you connect the storage device to the modem router’s port, it might take up to two minutes before
the storage device is ready for sharing. By default, the device is available to all computers on your local
area network (LAN).
5. Set up FTP access on the modem router.
For more information, see Set Up FTP Access Through the Internet on page 156.
6. On a remote computer with Internet access, you can use FTP to access your modem router using
ftp://yourname.mynetgear.com, in which yourname is your specific domain name.
For more information, see Use FTP to Access Storage Devices Through the Internet on page 158.
