D-Link DSL 2750U : USB storage, how ?

[PoBoy]

How does one use the USB storage feature of the DSL 2750 U ?

Modem Name : DSL-2750U
Serial Number :
Time and Date : 2012-05-23 00:05:20
HardwareVersion : U1
Firmware Version : IN_1.08

If using a USB flash drive ("thumb drive") does it have to be NTFS formatted ?
I don't see any USB options in settings -> advanced of the 2750U.

@PoBoy I used the instructions on this page: http://e-maya.blogspot.in/2011/07/how-to-configure-usb-hard-drive-on-d.html
It worked well. But data transfer was way too slow (I think.. I don't remember the reason why) so I stopped using it.

Connect your thumb drive to the router and access it on your PC via the run command \\192.168.1.1
The USB port on the router is a 2.0 port so speeds may depend upon that as well.

How do you want to access it? You can do it via ftp (ip address of the router) or Samba (via the command posted above)
Just go to advanced -> samba and enable it. Enable anon access to first see if its working and then put in a password if you feel necessary.
