    Enter your credentials when prompted. The username and password you need to enter here will be network dependent, so ask your system administrator if you don’t know this information.

    • Once logged in, you will see the flash drive icon along with the folder name on the desktop.

    • Advice

    • If you don’t want to use the folder on your computer as a network drive, you can connect the external hard drive to the router via an Ethernet adapter (or USB cable if the router supports it), then select ROUTER in the browser window for network drives. This way will make the drive stable because compared to the computer, the router changes less and is more often online.
    • The server that contains the network drive folder must always be on and online before other computers can access the drive, so you need to make sure that updating your computer is done outside of business hours.

    Warning

    • If the computer containing the network drive goes offline, you won’t be able to access the network drive on any of the computers until the server comes back online.

    This wikiHow teaches you how to set up a network drive on a Windows or Mac computer. A network drive is a shared folder that two or more computers on the same network can use.
