You go into the internal plumbing of Win10 and enable the smbv1 client. If a server can only use SMB1 it is unlikely it has WS-Discovery capability. The device has WS-DIscovery enabled like a Synology NAS has done. I did a quick search of your router and it appears it only supports the SMB1 dialect.Ī Windows 10 machine in it's default new build state will never be able to discover then connect to this device or any other device that only has SMB1 enabled since it's either disabled or will uninstall it if not used after a period of time unless one of two conditions are met: If you have an alternative to the router, the alternative might be a better investment of your time.Īs an aside if Linux distro s want to attract Windows users then surely access to network attached devices is an essential and shouldn't require any faffing with command line to achieve it. I recycled an old notebook to replace both because the old notebook hand many times more memory and other resources. Then the router fell out of date with no upgrade path because it lacked sufficient memory.
I also had a file server with dual disks that let you load up your own Web site and other services but there was no way to upgrade it to modern versions of Web sever or anything else. I used to use a router disk to share photographs but stopped when I upgraded to a camera with good 2K video as the router was too slow. Your feedback from any experiments could help other people decide to use that type of router or upgrade or use something else. Cheap routers seem to run fast enough to supply old low resolution video and struggle with full resolution 2K. The Pi 4 has two USB3 ports which means I can have dual backups for a little extra safety. I am currently adding a Raspberry Pi 4 as a cheap file server based on Ext4. A fast snapshot backup, like Backintime, cannot use the disks because they cannot be formatted as Ext4. I have two better than basic routers and have not found a use for a disk in either.īackup. USB 3 is faster but the low power in those routers will make the disk access as slow as USB2. Is it USB 2 or 3? That will limit your choice of disk.
