Hi everyone, looking for a little assistance with a home networking. I have the following hardware:
- GL-AR300M
- GL-MT300N-V2
- Spectrum Internet + Spectrum Wi-Fi router
- Netgear 8 port switch
- Windows laptop + 4TB hard drive (media)
My goal is to simply setup a wifi network throughout the house that will allow everyone to reach that hard drive with Kodi.
I can do things wireless, or I can make cables to hard wire everything (which is my preference for reliability/speed)
Currently I have the laptop/switch/Spectrum equipment all located together, with ethernet cables running to the GL routers. Internet access works fine everywhere but I can’t figure out how to get clients logged onto the GL routers to be able to see the media drive (that’s plugged into the laptop directly connected to the Netgear switch.
Thanks so much!
