How to network with external HD

Returned this as soon as I discovered the USB didn't support HD on my home network. Was I too hasty, is there a workaround?

Who knows?

 

What are you trying to achieve?

 

If you want to use the Orbi's HD port for local storage, that's a constant complaint. Heaven only knows why Netgear put the USB port there if it does nothing.

My thoughts when I discovered it was useless (to me) when I tried to get my home network back up and running. So sorry it didn't work out as I'd gotten the 53 with 3 units and the coverage in the house was awesome. As good as it was with that, it was useless.
