How do I access networked storage?

I have a progoplug and I plugged a hard drive into it. How do I access that hard drive? I can't seem to find a way. I know the IP address is 192.168.254.2 but can't find any way of getting to it to open it as a networked drive.

Macbook, Mac OS X (10.5.8)

I just had a scary email from these people....


Thank you for the update.

Unfortunately, it is not possible , since Pogoplug does not Support network drives.

Moreover, using our Diagnostic tool I was able to see your device offline.

Please bring your device online in order to make it accessible from your computer.


She can see through the firewall on my router! That says something about firewalls!


I'm taking it back to Walmart.

Yeah, get a descent local backup drive, Firewire if your MacBook has that, USB2 if not... then a decent backup APP...
