    I have a configuration where I have my pictures and videos loaded on a USB disk that is attached to a Linksys WRT610N router.  The pictures and videos play fine from VMC, but the Linksys 2100 extender does not find the content.  The extender is setup to include the network shares that are setup on the router, but apparently can not read the images and videos.  These are located on seperate shares.  Any thoughts on why the extender cannot find the content while VMC can?  The main reason I got the network share was so I could access these directly without having to depend on a PC serving this content...Any suggestions would be helpful....
