WRT1900AC - external storage - not detected

I have an external storage drive is not detected. I can plug in a USB key on the router and have found things. When I plug my external hard drive into the router, I get the name of the drive but the router does not detect the size, and I can't access the drive. The only error I get is on the Media Server tab when I click on add a new folder:

/jnap/storage/ListSubdirectories -- Status: 200 OK
 Date: Thu, 11 Feb 2016 03:36:53 GMT
 Server: lighttpd/1.4.34
 Connection: close

When I contacted Linksys support they said essentially that since my drive hard is not on their approved list, has nothing they will do to help understand why things don't work. I tried to plug my drive into a computer and everything works so I know the drive itself is good. It's just a matter of getting the router also detect the drive. The drive is formatted in NTFS.

The router says it's firmware is up to date 1.1.10.167514. I tried to reboot the router. The only thing I have not tried yet is a factory reset.

It solved!

The only way that I came to this solution was to use Linux. When I tried to plug the drive into a machine Windows the drive appears fine, but when I plugged the drive on a Linux machine and tried to mount it, I got a message saying that he could not climb because of some windows something or other. I think it happened, I had originally this drive in a windows-based Office Tower. I probably throught windows stopped but in reality it is only in hibernation. So the left Hibernate trace settings on the drive after I unplugged and tried to plug it into the router. The solution was to reconnect the drive on the windows machine, make a clean shutdown and then try to plug in the router. Once the router has seen the car and ability. I still had to tell the router to restart so that other computers can access the network share, but in the end, everything works fine.

I am just posting this in case someone else found this useful if they have they previously used on another computer in the car, do a clean shutdown before attempting to connect to the router.

  • HP ENVY 5830 HDMI / DVI and external monitor not detected

    I have a HP Envy 15 with the ATI 5830.  I want to connect an external monitor.  The outside is a Samsung SyncMaster P2770HD and has a DVI (also has HDMI, but poor quality when used from a PC). My laptop has only HDMI.  When I use a DVI - D HDMI converter / my laptop does not detect that there is an external monitor.  I've lived all my settings and updated the Bios and video drivers.  I'm missing something. Appreciate any help.

    Hmmm... Looks as HDMI / DVI - D adapter for me, like the HDMI port problem works well insulated... I don't remember any problems, I've heard of HDMI to DVI - D and untimely on Envy 15...

  • Local storage not detected during installation

    Just got some new guests to, HP DL380 G7s... Using Smart Array P410i controller.

    When I boot on the CD to begin the installation, it is only to see my CF storage, none of my local storage.

    • Physically, there are two 146 GB drives in raid 1 + 0.  Of these 2 physical disks, there is a logical drive in RAID 1 + 0.  After that he did not detect the storage, I deleted the logical drive and recreated, with no change in the result.
    • BIOS is configured to use the first SA P410i controller.
    • HIS P410i appears in the VMware HCL for each version of 3.5 to 5 U2.
    • Am in the process of the firmware released May 5, 2011 download, but these servers came pre-assembled with a burn-in already made, and I guess the firmware is already aware of this latest version - will certainly know when download ends.

    I'm obviously doing something ridiculous and stupid, but I don't see what I'm doing wrong.

    It's basically not much you can do wrong and what you write on the configuration of the RAID that everything should be good. Can you confirm that the logical volume is detected by the RAID controller during startup?

    When you install ESXI volume - although local - probably will see the place under the remote storage. You can also confirm that it is not at all clear?

  • WRT1900AC external storage and Windows 8.1

    I just upgraded this router after that Time Warner gave me a free upgrade to 200 Mbps.

    Everything is faster, make more SOON!

    My new laptop has got 206 Mbps 5.0 GHz Wireless.

    But, the laptop is running Windows 8.1, and I think it is the problem of external storage.

    I plugged a USB3 32 GB USB drive and a hard disk of 1 TB in USB1 and USB2, with the same result.

    On my desk, I see an icon for the Twonky Media Server and a folder of files to external storage.

    On my laptop, I see the Twonkymedia icon, but no folder.

    The laptop can music, videos and photos.  But there is no way to access any files outside media.

    The Office has a "Home" network, but the Windows laptop 8.1 has a "Private" network

    I put the laptop to share and can be transferred back and forth between the two computers.

    I don't see this as a case of breakage, but it would be nice to make it work.

    I have no experience network Windows 8/8.1.  I'm a fanboy of Windows 7.

    Thanks in advance for any help.

    To access media files from any computer on your network. Look in the storage of the router section and use the links provided to access the files.

    "I am running VM Fusion on a mac air allow mwe running windows 7 pro, when I connect external HD and select this option to install on windows, I get the message '... Unable to connect to its ideal host controller"suggestions?

    Hello

    If you plug a USB device into a host machine when you run a Mac OS X 10.5.5 virtual machine on which USB 2.0 support is disabled the virtual machine might fail. In this situation, VMware Fusion displays the message of the appliance could not connect to its ideal host controller when you connect the USB device and displays the message that the CPU has been disabled by the guest operating system when you click OK to close the previous message.

    In this case, go to the control panel of USB devices on the settings for this virtual machine window, and then select enable USB 2.0 support.

    Refer.

  • WRT1900AC of external storage outside the Local network

    I'm trying to set up my WRT1900AC router to access a USB attached as an external storage device. I can access the drive when I'm on the LAN, but I had no success accessing outside my local network. I enabled the FTP option in the section of external storage. With the FTP option is enabled, it then points me to the IP address that my cable modem ISP attributed to the router (192.168.0.2). Obviously this won't work from the outside world because it is not the IPV6 address. I install my modem cable to the port before 21-the 192.168.0.2 address and tried to access from outside by using my address IPV6 (ftp://77.XX.XXX.XX:21) but it will not connect. I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction, as I obviously don't do something here.

  • Updating ESX 3i 5 - how add/detect a USB external storage on the host drive

    I guess that this has been asked several times in the past, but I can't seem to get this to work for me.  All I want to do is use this USB external drive to back up files hard find in my volume of "datastore1".  I would like to implement a script, or even do it manually, where I tell you about my ESXi host just copy the files in VMFS volume in the external USB storage drive.

    My physical server is a Dell PowerEdge 2950, and it uses ESX 3i update 5.  I use a 250 GB Maxtor One Touch II USB external storage device, and it has been formatted with NTFS.

    Currently, I don't even know the controls able to detect this USB device.   I read only so that my drive to be recognized by the host, it must be ext3 or FAT32.  NTFS would be 'read only '.  I was hoping I could format the external drive through the ESXi (by command line), but maybe I'm deceiving myself.

    Thanks in advance

    I'm sorry to say that you are trying is not possible - external USB are not usable by ESXi or ESX =

  • does not detect external hard disk

    Hey guys

    Recently I update my macbook pro (2014) in the sierra of mac os. Since then, my mac does not detect any external hard drive I plug in it even if these drives are detected by the PC and all the files inside. I tried to open utility disk where the hard drive is displayed but the 'volume' located below is gray. When I try to hit mount said volume that nothing happens. All I could do to fix this?

    Thank you in advance.

    Hi sgerolio,

    I understand that you are unable to detect any external drive that you plug into your MacBook Pro, since you upgraded to macOS Sierra.  How many external hard drives work?  How they are formatted?   If formatted for PC, they would not necessarily be able to be read by a Mac.

    You have a small empty external drive or USB key that you can test?  Formatted in Mac OS extended (journaled).  Using the Finder, you are able to see the external drive and drag a file to it?

    The title of the article includes the Aperture application but apply these tips to format an external hard drive to any software application.

  • P30: External hard drive is not detected when you use IEEE 1394 cable

    My P30 not / can not detect my newly acquired Western informed extreme Digitak Drive 320 when I connect via the firewire port. I use a 4-pin cable (which costs a fortune, by the way) who is supposed to be a way to connect this drive to a 6-pin pc.

    My ieee 1394 driver seems to be called 'VIA OHCI Compliant IEEE 1394 host controller".

    Can someone tell me what to do? I really need to connect the FireWire drive because I need the USBs for other devices.

    Unfortuantely, Apple did not update the firmware on the USB key (it is still 2.0) port on their routers for a number of years.  As a result, new USB 3.0 drives may or may not work with airports.

    Yes, we know that USB 3.0 is supposed to be backward compatible with USB 2.0 in theory, but theory does not always work in practice.

    If your drive is formatted as Mac OS extended (journaled)... also called HFS +... .and you have tried the drive with and without a USB hub powered and the reader will not be displayed with you check using the AirPort Utility disks tab... then you have one of a number of readers who do not work with routers from the airport.

    I just checked a new LaCie USB 3.0 drive I have here. It works perfectly with a Mac, but it appears not at all when I connect it to the USB port or a powered new AirPort Extreme or new Time Capsule directly, or by using a USB hub.
