Hello.
I have a CudyWR1300S router.
I enabled port forwarding.
But I can’t access the FTP server using my external static IP address.
Can you tell me how to access the USB drive from the internet?

@Dear Dmitry,
Our technical support has contacted you via email. Please check.

“@Support,
Firmware version: 2.3.2-20241226-105607
Hardware: WR1300S V1.0
Maybe WR1300S in AP mode cannot provide USB sharing service?”

@Dear Dmitry,
What is the firmware version of your WR1300S?
“I am using two WR1300S as access points to my network (and R700 as a router). I turned on USB sharing in WR1300S`s web interface but cannot access usb not using \\ or \\\ in File Explorer (Windows)… What am I doing wrong?”
