Enable Media Server through router (Sagemcom FAST 5364 Shell)

ibrahimovic — Mon, 26 Aug 2024 18:23:48 GMT

I noticed that the router has a USB port. I am trying to make it a portable media server through a HDD for my Fire Stick.

However there is no setting inside the router to enable Media Sharing /Samba.

Anyone able to do it?

The USB is a dumb connection for router engineering purposes only.

Yes, you can use any router of your choice as long as it has a built in modem suitable for your current connection type.
