How to create video streaming server
I have the AC1750 Wireless Gigabit Router and have added a USB drive with movies on it that I can access on my computer through the LAN and FTP. However, I want to be able to stream the videos, rather than download them (if viewing through FTP). How can I do this? Thank you.

What is the model number of the router you are using? The model ususally starts with the name of Archer.

Thanks for the info.
You can try to go about streaming videos by utilizing the DLNA service.
You should already have the router sharing function enabled under Advanced > USB Settings > Sharing Access > "Network Neighborhood"
The next thing would be to set up DNLA access on what ever device you are looking to use. You should be able to find help guides by searching for what ever device you have.
