I have the white dual band Jio ONT. Got it during the preview offer in September-October 2018. I have connected a 2 TB hard drive (non-powered) to the USB of the ONT. How do I access the data stored on the drive, on other mobile devices?

I tried accessing via FTP server, but the connection does not remain stable. I'm using Solid Explorer (paid full version) on my phone. The drive can be accessed if I try to access it as a media server. But I'm trying to access it through LAN/SMB option.

Can anyone help?

Just an update. The DMS option has been disabled sometime in the recent past. It is no longer available. I can see it in the settings, but I can't activate it. Hardly ever used it anyways.
 
DMS is still turned on for me (can't turn it off). However now it is not possible to access a storage device connected to the ONT (which was possible earlier). Only possible via the Jio Home app.
I have the white ONT and there is the FTP option. However when I try to connect via FTP, it asks for username and password. When I enter the router login details over there it says incorrect details. Don't know what to enter over there.
