Hi,
I’m trying to set up file sharing on my MT1300. Empty 128 GB micro sd card is inserted and formatted to ext4 (r-w). I can create folders and files and also copy over network (from windows) but when file size is over 2 MB it says: there is not enough space…
Is there so small file size limit which I have to unlock or…?
make sure the directory is /mnt/sda1 not /mnt. Root is limited to 2mb.
Hi,
Thanks for reply.
I have checked it another 100 times and the limit is 13 mb. I can copy to the router as many as I want files below 13 mb but one by one only. Micro sd card is mounted in /mnt/128gb/

I have exact same problem on my MT1300, and tried both an SD card & a USB HDD (both formatted as NTFS).
It cannot copy files bigger than 13MB, but anything below that is fine.
Did you find a solution?
Can you show output from the following commands in SSH?
df
mount
block info
Hi,
I managed to find a workaround by mounting “/mnt/mmcblk0p1”, and not just “/mnt”.
“/mnt” seems to have the limitation (of 13MB), but not when I mount the drives directly to share folders.
Here is the output of the commands, but “block info” wasn’t recognised:

Your microSD card is mounted on “/mnt/mmcblk0p1” that you are able to share.
Your USD hdd is mounted on "/mnt/Ext_160GB so you can try sharing it,.
“/mnt” is the internal storage of the router that only has 13MB freespace.
I used the LuCI GUI to set up multiple file shares because the GL.iNet GUI only shows 1 directory to be shared, which is confusing to me.
You may have to install packages for the “block info” command. Here is more information:

Yes, the GL-iNet interface is limited, and I was using the LuCI GUI to define 2 different shared folders/mounts, and that seems to have worked fine so far. I had to install the plugin “luci-app-samba” (git-21.044.30835-34e0d65-1) to be able to do these modifications.
Your comment of “/mnt being the internal storage with only 13MB free” makes sense now, and I believe that’s why even when I was in “/mnt/mmcblk0p1”, I still could not copy files bigger than 13MB (with only “/mnt” being mounted).
Thanks a lot for your support!

As I remember, and it was a while ago, I formatted it again, but to fat32, and then again to Ext4, but on my Ubuntu or Android, not sure, but it works now.
hello, you use samba， into GL-Samba/mmcblk0p file floder, can copy the file bigger than 13MB ? is goto GL-Samba/mmcblk0p， Not in GL-Samba file floder
