Archer C8 Flashing USB light and USB drive hardly ever available
Model : Archer C8
Hardware Version : V1
Firmware Version : Archer_C8_V1_150518_US
Need some help with my Archer C8. I've just decided to share a USB 2.0 drive. I plug the drive into the USB 3.0 port (I've tried with the 2.0 port as well) and the USB light blinks really fast. I scan over and over and it never finds the drive. Then suddenly it will show up. I share it locally, and can connect to it from my Mac but only briefly before it disconnects.
Side question. Does anyone know the power output of the 2 USB ports? I'd like to power a Raspberry Pi Zero from one of them. This is unrelated to the drive connectivity.
I have upgraded the firmware to the most current.
