For more information, see Set Up a New Dynamic DNS Account on page 111. 2. Make sure that your Internet connection is working. Your DST router must use a direct Internet connection. It cannot connect to a different router to access the Internet. 3. Connect a USB storage device to a USB port on the DST router. 4. If your USB storage device uses a power supply, connect it.

By default, the USB storage device is available to all computers on your local area network (LAN). 5. Set up FTP access in the router.
