I found the solution by the way…...I needed to add the disc number after the ip address….BEFORE the MAPFolder. so //192.168.xx.xx/g/mapname.    in this case the router used a g for my USB disk.   Very strange, but maybe good to know for others .. Thanks everyone

Start here, options can be picky.

Does this router treat attached USBs as an NAS? Or is it just a networked drive?

Stanley, thanks,, I looked at all of that, but no progress. Bruce- I think its called a mini NAS, for basic functionality….

    The IP Address should be the location of the USB stick followed by a folder name: 

    Try this:

    //192.168.xx.xx/name of folder that contains your music 

    or

    //192.168.xx.xx (assuming the entire USB stick contains music files and nothing else). However, I don’t recommend this format which is “iffy”

    Why? It’s a local IP address, absolutely useless to anyone unless on the OP’s network, which would imply a much bigger security problem.
