Dear sir,

I have router having USB pen drive. The media files(video,audio,photos) of USB pen drive are visible in the mobile phone through wifi using a mobile app(app name:-file manager).
I want to view the pdf,word,excel,text etc files from another network(external network).
What should be the settings?
I am using LUCI webinterface for doing the settings.
