E4200 Issues with External HD Connecting to USB - Trying to Create Media Server

Hi everyone,

 

I have a older yet expensive E4200 v1 linksys router and it has been giving me headaches since the beginning of time.

 

Essentially when i plug in an external HD filled with Shows and Movies, it reads it perfectly fine.  However, when trying to access and play these files via my Samsung Smart TV, the router would sometime crash and not only do I lose access to the HD but also the wifi as well.

 

My questions are:

1) Should I try and avoid uploading 500mb+ files onto the External HD that is connected to the router via USB?

2) Is there a limit on how big the file I should stream from the External HD?

 

For the record, I believe i have the latest firmware installed on the router.

 

Thanks in advance guys.
