As a basic network stored drive. But dont think have the other functions of NAS. I've not used it before. But i read reviews that it can be done. But never explored on how to do so. https://www.asus.com/support/FAQ/1011279/ Edited May 20, 2021 by Lala81 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first and most important thing to remember is a router’s primary function is to host your network. For this reason, even a high-end router tends to have limited processing power for non-networking tasks. Naturally, a router is not as capable as a dedicated NAS when hosting storage space. Also, just because the router USB port or ports support a few functions — like NAS, printing, or cellular modem, and so on — doesn’t mean you should expect to use all of them at the same time, nor should you expect the top performance of each when you use them all together. (For the same reason, you can’t, either, expect to have the same storage performance via Wi-Fi as via a wired connection. In the former, the router has to use its power to broadcast the Wi-Fi signals at the same time.) By the way, if a router has multiple USB ports, chances are they all share a single USB hub. So, you can’t use more than one bus-powered devices with it, and each port only has its share of the hub’s total bandwidth. I would advise you get from taobao those 4 bays xenology for as little as $80 and add your own hdd, its has the same features synology dsm and has much better security and features as compare to a router usb attached storage.

Was trying to use an old router for some changes to my home network setup and it simply doesn't want to grab a WAN IP. As I was surfing sgcarmart forum, for some reason, this post came enlighten into my head. Gonna try this tonight. 😅 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gizmore Supercharged July 5, 2021 Share July 5, 2021 Update. In the end, don't need to call M1 to reset. Clone the MAC address into the old router and the WAN is alive! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albeniz Turbocharged March 31, 2022 Share March 31, 2022 (edited) Folks, borrow this thread for some quick questions. My company laptop doesn't allow me to tap on public free wifi, but I need to attend online zoom meetings and work on large emails in places like coffeeshop, libraries etc. One way to do this is through tethering, using the data plan from my smart phone. The quick questions are: 1. What is the best data plan for this purpose, assuming I want the least commitment? 2. How much data would a typical 2-hour zoom meeting consume? 3. There seems to be a number of new companies providing these data plans, how stable are their data service? Edited March 31, 2022 by Albeniz 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
