Hey Everyone,

I have been using DDWRT for a while and have this feature on other models but this is the first time i'm trying this on my DIR-632.

I'm trying to mount a 3TB USB hard drive to the Router so I can use it as my offsite backup.

Here is the message when I try to use the GUI to mount it:

The router is a DIR-632 with 8MB Flash and 32 RAM
I've upgraded my firmware to the latest V3.0-R30939 STD
-Also the STD doesn't support the JFFS system as I tried to do it manually as well but failed.

Any Ideas would be great.

So after doing some digging i found out that my firmware doesnt have the ext2.ko or ext3.ko ... it only has fat and vfat .... haven't figure out why since ext2.ko is apparently the preferred method.

So currently i'm running my 3TB as NTFS and the router sees it correctly and its working properly. Going to do some testing on it and see how it goes.

If anybody could shine some knowledge that would be great on why the router is missing ext2.
