Share a hard drive with everyone on your Wi-Fi network

Take advantage of your router's USB port with a little trick that lets you share a hard drive with anyone on your Wi-Fi network.

Cloud storage is expensive, but it's not the only way to share a bunch of files across many devices. Instead, you can use an external hard drive and your router to create networked storage accessible to anyone on your Wi-Fi network.

When it's set up, any files stored on that drive can be accessed by all devices on your network -- even phones and tablets. Here's how to set it up on Windows.

Step 1: Choose your drive

The drive you share can be as small as thumb drive, or as large as a 3TB external hard drive. Check your router's manual to find out if there are any storage limitations, since some routers have a storage cap.

Once you've chosen your drive, plug it in.

Step 2: Enable USB drive sharing

On any computer connected to your Wi-Fi network, launch a browser, and navigate to your router's IP address. You can find this on the back of the router, in the device manual, or by searching for it online. In most cases, it looks like 192.168.X.X.

When the page loads, you'll be asked to log in with your username and password. If you changed it, you should know it. If you didn't, it's probably still admin (username), and admin (password).
Those who fall into the latter category, please change your password as soon as you can, and before proceeding to the next step.

Every router's interface is different, but if yours has a USB port, you'll find a link entitled something like File Sharing under the Administrator settings. In this window, enable the file sharing server (also called SAMBA). Apply the settings, and exit.

Step 3: Access the drive

You're now ready to read and write to your attached hard drive. Open a file explorer window, and navigate to the Network folder in the left sidebar. Then, clear out the path at the top of the explorer window, and enter \\[your IP address]. So, for example, it might look like: \\192.168.1.1
Share a hard drive with everyone on your Wi-Fi network
With that, your drive will appear. Open it to access its contents, just like any other folder. If you're asked to log in, simply use your router's login credentials (the same one used to log into the Web interface.)
If you plan on leaving your hard drive attached, so that you can easily access it from any Explorer window. To do that, right-click the drive and select "Map network drive..." Give it a name, and the folder will appear in the sidebar.
Share a hard drive with everyone on your Wi-Fi network
To access the drive on other computers on the network, repeat step 3.

wireless network

In this topology we have three pc connected with Linksys Wireless routers.
  • DHCP is configured and enabled on Wireless router
  • IP pool for DHCP is 192.168.0.100 to 192.168.0.150
  • PC are configured to receive IP from DHCP Server
  • No security is configured
  • Default SSID is configured to Default
  • Topology is working on infrastructure mode
  • Default user name and password is admin
  • IP of wireless is set to 192.168.0.1
Now your task is to:-
  • Configure Static IP on PC and Wireless Router
  • Change SSID to MotherNetwork
  • Change IP address of router to 10.0.0.1 and 10.0.0.2 of PC0 10.0.0.3 of PC1 10.0.0.4 of PC2
  • Secure your network by configuring WAP key on Router
  • Connect PC by using WAP key
To complete these tasks follow this step by step guide of how to configure wireless network
As given in question our network is running on 192.168.0.0 network and all PC's are DHCP clients and functioning properly. So we will first connect to Wireless router to off DHCP.
Double click on PC and select Web Browser. As given in question IP of Wireless router is 192.168.0.1 so give it in Web browser and press enter, now it will ask for authentication which is also given in question. Give user name admin and Password to admin
