    Help required with Networking/router


    Hope someone can help.

    I'm getting to grips with my new Cambridge CXN streamer.

    I'm ok with connecting an external USB stick to my PC as the CXN recognises this through my Windows 10 library.

    However, when I connect the stick to my (BT) router, although Windows sees it in the Network section & I can access it & play music, when I try to add the stick to the library, it says its not indexed.

    There doesn't seem to be a way of adding the stick to the index section for Windows to include it when plugged into the router.

    Is there a solution to this?

    :)

  2. Cant connect to network

    It could be that your router or network is using a specific band requirement? Do you know what band (AC, N, G) your router is configured to use and what your network adapter on your computer is using?

    Focus will sometimes disconnect from wireless networks and refuse to reconnect

    Like the title says. My phone will connect to a network just fine (thus far with my work network and my home router, both secured), but then after awhile disconnect and when I go to reconnect it gives the "phone couldn't connect to wifi network" screen.
    I know I have the password right.



    Anyway, I've got a Belkin router, which is broadcasting my SSID, the router will allow all 802.11 devices, and it does not require static IP address or filter any MAC addresses.



    Help?

    If you map the drive you should be able to index it.

    Thanks for the reminder about Tutorials Kbird!! The drive is now showing: Music(\\bthub4\usb3) (Z*Smile

    I can also add this to The Library but for some reason I can't add it to the Indexing section. My Cambridge CXN streamer doesn't find it on the network.

    Any clues?

    & Thanks
