ReadySHARE privacy

I recently added another computer to my home and am thinking of moving a USB hard drive to one of the USB ports on this router. Since Comcast manages this router (or at least the interface facing them) I am concerned that they will be able to see everything on the drive that I connect to the router's USB port. Is this the case?

  • No. It takes something like ReadyCLOUD to get remote access.

     

    Look at the ReadySHARE settings and tweak them to allow access to what you want.
