Network printing
Unless someone here can tell me differently, it appears with the advent of wifi-6, Netgear (along with all other manufacurers), will no longer be manufacturing routers with included usb print servers...

NG isn't the first to drop support on newer generation routers for Print serivces and USB support. Though NG still has some routers that still support USB drives, printers are not needing of Readyshare services as most printer connect to routers, wired or wireless, have there own share and support features that don't rely on Readyshare features, thus making RS unnecessary. Thus NG is probably going to depreciate RS services on NG products. Doesn't mean that NG routers are not capable of doing other router features. I've never used RS for my printers and never needed that but thats me.
Good Bye and Good Luck.
