Mrbchambers Posted March 15 Share Posted March 15 Can the USB port on the R3 be used to access Pen drives etc, or is it there for external power only? I have looked in the settings to see if there is some sort of smart share option, and cant find one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does light the rather natty blue LED on my pen drive, so it is connected to the power bus at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thinking about it, fixing the sharing issue was the right thing to do. If the USB had been enabled I probably wouldn't have resolved the issue. P.s. I should have just reinstalled the OS, it would have only taken half an hour! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

File sharing/having it as a NAS has actually been requested so we'll look into it! carmine19 and Mrbchambers 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChrisG82 Posted March 16 Share Posted March 16 I would prefer that the R3 will use ist as a permanent storage so that there is no data loss (like Logs, data usage, ping heatmap and so on) after a powercycle… Luis Gomes, carmine19 and Netduma Fraser 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we run into an issue or upgrade, standard procedure is to factory reset. It should be a main (main) priority for the team, especially for the tinkerers like me.
