Nighthawk LTE Mobile Hotspot Router Model MR1100 Manage Shared Storage Devices You can insert a USB storage device in the mobile router USB type A port and you can install a micro SD card in the mobile router. You can access the files and folders on these devices from computers and mobile devices that are connected to the mobile router network. USB Device Requirements The mobile router works with most USB-compliant external flash and hard drives. Some USB external hard drives and flash drives require you to load the drivers onto the computer before the computer can access the USB device. Such USB devices do not work with the mobile router. The mobile router supports the following file system types for full read/write access: FAT16, FAT32, NTFS, HFS, and HFS+. When you purchase a USB storage device, the package typically identifies its format. For information about how to format a USB storage device using a Windows or Mac computer, consult the help instructions for your computer or operating system. You might need to use a specific application to format a USB storage device. CAUTION: Formatting a USB storage device erases all its content.

Insert your USB storage drive into a USB port on the router. 2. If your USB device uses a power supply, connect it. You must use the power supply when you connect the USB device to the router.
