FTP access from vu+ and router

[Amirali.sh]

Hi every one
I have a router with sharing function and FTP access via USB port .
Now I want to use FTP between router(FTP)and vu+
But I can't reach the files in USB(on router USB port)
But I can access any media files on USB with black hole media player .
(In media player ican see my shared folder)
But icant access any ipk or other format of files and I dono where it is .
Is there any FTP browser software available for vu+ ?
Or something like that ?

On both - on your router and on Vu+ are configured ftp servers, not clients. I do not understood this
"But I can't reach the files in USB(on router USB port)

If you want to access files with Vu+ from other ftp's, you must google for "enigma2 ftp client plugin" for your architecture. Or I think there is ftpget in enigma2, but may be I'm wrong - I don't check this

Hello again.
I try many different ways to do this
And finally find the way .
There is a file browser in plugins . when you run it you can see network mount like the picture.
But beforeyou should mount it at plugins ->netdrive

Network mounts are realized by samba, or nfs, not ftp

But I use netdrive and it's working like hero
Like the picture
And then you can see network mount in file browser

Yes, it is a samba mount (analogous to the Windows "Network Neighborhood"). But I recommend NFS mount - it is faster, what is relevant for larger broadcast traffic. For this you must install and configure NFS server on your computer, configure it and mount as NFS (not CIFS) on your STB. If I'll find a free time, I'll try to write how-to about NFS mounts, because in our How-to's found only CIFS mount tutorial.
