    Hi guys, massive thread!

    Just wondering if anyone has found a way to share media across a network by plugging a non-NAS HDD into the Thompson via USB?

    Can't be done. USB on this router is only for connection to PC and not for sharing USB devices. One thing I miss from my 5h1tty Vodafone router.

    I have one of these routers.
    I recently installed a IPCCTV camera system with an NVR that I want to view remotely.
    I can see the cameras no problem on any device connected to the router.
    In order to view the cameras remotely I need to forward ports 80 and 8000.
    I have forwarded these ports on the router, however when I check using any of the port setting sites it says they are closed - any idea where I'm going wrong?

    If your forwarding the ports to the IP camera, then your computer wouldn't have the ports open for it, just the camera itself. So they will still look closed on the PC. Although port 80 should show as open anyway as it's for http.

    Basically all traffic with those ports are being directed to the camera, your PC however would not have those ports open for it. Although not 100-percent.

    According to the attached guide the ports should show as open?

    Also try turn off you firewill and then test it, if it fails restart your modem, if it fails pin reset your modem, if all that fails put it in the DMZ it it fails....I'm stummped.

    Thanks.
    The firewall is already turned off on the router.
    I've restarted the modem numerous times.
    I put it in DMZ and it still didn't work.

    I'm going to hard reset the modem now...

    I realize this is quite old topic but I encountered this issue today and were able to "solve" it.

    In my case, I could not set the LAN IP to 192.168.1.1 from the factory default 192.168.0.1

    1. Change the LAN IP to 192.168.1.1
    2. Change the DHCP Lease Pool Start to 192.168.1.100
    2. Change the DHCP Lease Pool End to 192.168.1.254
    3. Click Apply and let the device reboot

    There seems to be a software bug that prevents you from changing to certain subnets if the DHCP Lease Pool Start is less than *.*.*.100

    I'm now having problems getting my device to recognise certain wifi devices. My internet radio will no longer connect and my dad's laptop (which always worked) won't connect either. Both can see the router over DHCP but when I enter password, nothing happens on Internet radio and on laptop it just says "cannot connect".

    Anyone any ideas?

    Have tried resetting etc and still no joy.
