n600 c3700 usb port question - previous answer incomplete
I'm helping a friend set up his N600 C3700V2 to be a DLNA server and File server. I did a quick test with one of my external USB hard drives, and it worked. However, I want to connect a much larger...
The unit may have been first released a while ago: but USB drives greater than 2 TB certainly existed then.
That it hasn't been updated, even a little, and is still being sold NOW as a current device, shows that Netgear isn't really supporting their equipment.

On modem/router combo devices, its on the ISP to push the update to them. Netgear might have updates and submit them to the ISP but the ISP certifies them and sends them out. If they don't send them out, Netgear can't force them to. The ISP's not actually updating devices when there's updates available is why we don't usually recommend modem/router combo devices.
