Actiontec MI424WR USB ports

When we will get firmware update to enable the USB ports on the MI424WR router for external harddrive storage?  Really want to see this option available as I missed this capability from my previous Belkin router in my DSL days.

Hi,

Even I am waiting for it. I spoke to VERIZON FIOS tech support person today but he told me that he has not heard of any news about activating those USB ports..I want to plug-in my USB hard-drive to share it across multiple systems 😞

Hope they listen to us sooooon 🙂

Thanks,

kamdard.

Yeah, I'd like to see NAS enabled on the ActionTec Router too.  As the manual states...

"In the future, with a firmware release upgrade, the USB host functionality will be available for devices such as external storage and cameras."

However setting up NT Shares is easy and that's what I have done on my SOHO LAN.
