I'm thinking of purchasing the model mentioned above. My previous two Netgear routers had "Readyshare". Can anyone on here tell me if this model has Readyshare??

Thanks again, Here is what I found. It answers my question.Will my USB drive work with ReadySHAREAll Routers should work with most USB-compliant external flash and hard drives. Do NOT connect computers, USB modems, CD or DVD drives to the router's USB port. Please...

Hello SASS678,

Readyshare is not a feature currently on the RAX40 but is something you can request over on the Idea exchange board using the link below.

  Christian,
  I notice there is a USB port on this model. Does it recognize a hard drive that is plugged into it? I have one plugged into my Nighthawk R7000 that I use to store all my information re Readyshare. I was wondering if or how the Nighthawk AX4 could be set up to continue the storage.

    AX4 is not a Netgear model number.
    
    You probably mean the RAX40, in which case, there is support for the RAX40, including manuals, at the end of this link:
    
    >>>RAX40 | Product | Support | NETGEAR<<<
    
    That should tell you what features this thing supports. These may, though, change as Netgear brings out new firmware. The Release Notes detail what gets added or removed ion firmware updates.
