Question
How do I enable media sharing on my SBR-AC1750?
Answer
The SBR-AC1750 includes a USB (Universal Serial Bus) port, which supports file sharing and DLNA Media Server for media sharing.  The file sharing feature is disabled by default and media sharing feature is enabled by default.  

NOTE: The USB port does NOT support Internet connection and portable USB 3.0 devices.

Requirements:
  • A USB 2.0 and 3.0 Storage Device
NOTE: USB 3.0 device requires a power adapter
  • A DNLA-certified player is needed to use the media sharing feature
