2.  Click   to modify the access account. The username and password are both 
admin for default administrator account, and both visit for default visitor account. 
Accessing as an administrator can read and modify the shared folders while visitors 
can only read the shared folders.
Note:
1.  For Windows users, do not set the sharing username the same as the Windows username. Otherwise, Windows 
credential mechanism may cause the following problems:
•  If the sharing password is also the same as the Windows password, authentication will not work since the Windows 
will automatically use its account information for USB access.
•  If the sharing password is different from the Windows password, the Windows will be unable to remember your 
credentials and you will always be required to enter the sharing password for USB access. 
2.  Due to Windows credential mechanism, you might be unable to access the USB disk after changing Authentication 
settings. Please log out from the Windows and try to access again. Or you can change the address of the USB disk 
by referring to To Customize the Address of the USB Storage Device.

2.  When your USB storage device is inserted into the router, your DLNA-supported 
devices (such as your computer and pad) connected to the router can detect and 
play the media files on the USB storage devices.
