Share USB Storage Devices Attached to
the Router
This chapter describes how to access and manage storage devices attached to your router. ReadySHARE lets
you access and share USB storage devices connected to the router. (If your storage device uses special drivers,
it is not compatible.)
The USB ports on the router can be used only to connect USB storage devices like flash
drives or hard drives or a printer. Do not connect computers, USB modems, CD drives, or
DVD drives to the router USB port.
