Media Hub
To disable this feature,

Media Server
The Media Server feature allows the Media Hub to index
media files (like a library catalog or database). The status
of this feature is displayed. By default, it is enabled.
If you have UPnP AV-enabled (or DLNA-certified) devices
in your home, then you can use the Media Hub as a media
server. Such devices include digital media adapters and
other devices, such as a gaming console with a built-in
media player or digital picture frame. For example, if you
have a digital media adapter that sends content to your
entertainment system, then the digital media adapter can
locate the Media Hub using the UPnP AV standard. Media
content on the Media Hub can then be accessed and
played by the digital media adapter.
Configure
By default, the Media Hub indexes media files
stored on itself. To expand the Media Hub's reach to your
local network, click this option.
Media Server
Find Shared Media on My Local Network
shared media files on your local network, select this
option. The Media Hub scans its local content and
any media content stored in UPnP AV-compatible
servers connected to the local network. Indexing
of media files on your computers is possible with
Windows Media Player (WMP); however, it is not
recommended. Instead, Linksys recommends that you
copy media files on your computers to the Media Hub;
refer to Chapter 2: Getting Started, page 9 for more
information.
