I have an external drive connected via USB to my router. How do I find the right address to enter into the "\\ComputerName\share" field on the Network Shares page?

  This would be located in your router documentation. Heads up though. Most USB-connected drives to ISP-provided local routers use an older SMB (windows File Sharing) Security level called SMB 1.0. For security and trojan reasons, this protocol has been deprecated in most devices released after 2015. BluOS requires a minimum of SMB 2.1 bt SMB 3.0 is preferred.
