Section 4 - Shareport
The mydlink SharePort app is a streamlined mobile application that allows you to conveniently stream media and share les
stored on a removable storage connected to your router. Once the router is set up, you can start the app and easily connect
from a local network or through the Internet to access your photos, videos, music, and documents. It allows you to create your
own personal cloud storage; you can upload les and photos from your mobile device to the removable storage via the app
from anywhere in the world!
Note: In order to ensure smooth streaming performance, you will need a minimum of 2 Mbit/s upload bandwidth for your router’s Internet connection.
Streaming performance will vary depending on the quality of your Internet connection.
