Share your USB drive for Linksys WRT1200AC, WRT1900AC(S), and WRT3200ACM
These steps will work for the following Linksys routers flashed with the latest ExpressVPN firmware: WRT3200ACM, WRT1900AC(S), and Linksys WRT1200AC.
Step 1: Insert your USB device into the USB port at the back of your router. (Note: For WRT3200ACM, the USB must be inserted into the blue USB 3.0 port.)
Step 2: Log in to expressvpnrouter.com.
Step 3: Click System in the top navigation bar, then click Mount Points.
In the “Mount Points” table, there should be a new entry representing the USB device. Check Enabled and copy the path to your clipboard. (In this example, our path is /mnt/sda1.)
Step 4: Go to Network Shares in the sidebar. Under “Shared Directories”, click Add.
Step 5: Enter a name for your directory, then paste the path you copied from the “Mount Points” screen.
OPTIONAL: Check Allow guests if you want everyone in the LAN to access the directory.
Click Save & Apply.
Step 6: In the sidebar, click Reboot, then click Perform reboot.
Step 7: Access your shared USB drive on your computer. (After your router restarts, you may have to wait a minute or two for your USB drive to appear.)
Please note that it may take a few minutes for your shared folder(s) to appear for other devices joining your network.
