3.1.3 Monitoring your USB device

The ASUS Wireless Router provides two USB 2.0 ports for connecting USB devices or USB printer, to allow you to share files and printer with clients in your network.

NOTES:

•To use this feature, you need to plug a USB storage device, such as a USB hard disk or USB flash drive, to the USB 2.0 port on the rear panel of your wireless router. Ensure that the USB storage device is formatted and partitioned properly. Refer to the Plug-n-Share Disk Support List at http://event.asus.com/networks/disksupport

•The USB ports support two USB drives or one printer and one USB drive at the same time.

IMPORTANT!

For more details, refer to the section 3.5.Using the USB Application and 3.6 Using AiCloud in this user manual.
