    Hi,

    A Pen Drive or USB is a data storage device that includes flash memory with an Integrated USB interface, and is a Plug and play device. That said, your computer should easily recognize your Pen Drive without any issues. A software might be blocking it, or
    an update is needed for it to work properly. However, let us isolate your concern by providing the answers to these questions:

    • Is your Pen Drive working in other devices?
    • Were there any changes (Updates, software installation) made prior to the issues?
    • Have you tried using another Pen Drive on your computer?

    in the meantime, we suggest that you insert your Pen Drive, and check if there's any error(s) in Device Manager.

    We're looking forward to your response.

    Using a Pen Drive with the Router


    I have a HomeHub 4. Did you know the USB socket can easily power an external USB HDD? I have a 2TB one permanently plugged into mine.

    Another 'did you know' for you - if you replace the pen drive with another one (or an HDD) the new device will be assigned the share name USB2, and further USB devices will be USB3, USB4, etc. Now put the original pen drive back in and it shows as USB1, the hub recognises each device it has seen before and retains its share name.

    The pen drive you have plugged into the USB socket appears as the share USB1 on the internal network, only accessible through the hub's internal IP address 192.168.1.254. Open your Hub Manager, log in with the admin password and look at the Home Network page. Here you will see the USB is on the list of Wired Connections along with LAN1 to LAN4, it is protected by your hub's firewall just as any other PC with a wired connection would be.

    It is also accessible to anyone who can connect to your router, there's no way to set a password to connect to the share. So if you haven't yet changed your WiFi password do so now. The default WiFi password supplied with the hub is unique to each hub, but it's widely known to always be a 10 digit hex number - too easy to crack with a brute force attack.
