Or no one would. See:
I don't see APFS in that list. Again, if you're connecting a storage
device (like a USB-connected disk) to some computer (like the one in
your router), then the file-system software/firmware _on_that_computer_
(your router) needs to deal with the actual file system on the storage
device.

Still true.
In general, I'd expect Netgear to support NTFS better than any
Apple-specific file system.
