Model: TL-WR902AC  
Hardware Version: V3
Firmware Version: 0.9.1 0.4 v0089.0 Build 241231 Rel.43892n(4555)

I have an USB-Stick or USB-Drive connected via LAN-Cabel to the WR902AC and the storage sharing is configured. In the settings the server status and share name is enabled. With SMB I can connect with other devices (NAS, tablet, Windows-PC) to this storage. 

My issue is that after an reboot of the WR902AC the storage is not more reachable with SMB. If I look in the settings the server status and share is enabled. After disabling the server status and enabling it again, the storage is again reachable.

This means that allways I have to do manual intervention (disable-enable) in the settings after a reboot of the router (may be happends after power interruption).

How I can fix this issue and have the storage usable enabled after reboot without manual intervention?

Hi@hubert57,

May I know when did the issue start?  If there is any error message, please take a screenshot and send it here.

Did you try to hard reset and configure the router again?
