ReadySHARE Access
After installation and set-up, you can insert a USB storage device into
the USB port on the modem router
and share the contents with other
network users. (If your USB device has special drivers, it is not
compatible.)
Note:
If your USB device requires a power supply, you have to use it
when connecting your USB device to a NETGEAR router or gateway.
It might take up to 2 minutes before the USB drive is ready for sharing
after it is connected to the router.
