Hub Two USB port

Hi, hoping someone here can help me as I've had no joy elsewhere.

I've plugged a memory device into the port and it shows up in Hub Two Manager/Devices, but there's nothing I can set/change there other than the device name and icon.

Q: I would like to share files with other devices on my local network, does anyone know if this is possible?Plusnet Hub Two USB.png

Re: Hub Two USB port

@FredGenius  Welcome to the Plusnet Community Fora.

This port uses the obsolete SMB1 protocol, this is not recommended as it is seen as a security risk.

Many devices lock out using SMB1 by default. I don't know about other devices but on a Windows machine you have to accept the risks and change the settings to gain access.

I would find other ways to transfer data.

Re: Hub Two USB port

I leave a USB cable in there for charging small devices, that's it's ONLY realistic use these days.
