Am I making life harder on myself? Using USB inputs instead of Internet?

Very nice reply, WileyCoyote

JFI I have been using my WD TV SMP for years but had a lot of problems when I changed to a Netgear R8000 router.

Nothing else changed but the router and I lost my “Shares”.  Tried everything…  Then tried mike27oct’s “Sticky” and “Turned off Protected Sharing” and ALL came good   :smiley:
