Sorry for the delay, i have now restarted the router and i can see both the exFAT and FAT partition on my windows PC, but not on my Mac through Shareport Plus

Yes, it is an external drive, it has an external powersource (two usb plugs, one that carries both data and power, and one that is only power. The plug that is only power is plugged into a 230v to USB converter)

Not sure if using a Mixed Parition drive will work...or if it's even supported. Any chance you have a test drive that you can format entirely to NTFS? Even try a small drive with FAT16 or 32. I never got a chance to get my hands on a 855 however I believe the 855 is similar the the DGL-4500...maybe.

I would contact D-Link support ON the phone and ask them and see if there is any help on this...Might not get far since the 855 is no longer made.
