A WLAN Router with b/g and 108 mbps special is nice and available... but can you use it with a storage device - a router/network attached storage (NAS) to store your files centrally without using a dedicated file server?

No - that's where the WGT634U comes in.


Based on the WGT624 108Mbps router , the WGT634U has an extra feature - a USB 2.0 port. This connects to any USB storage device or memory stick to turn the WGT634U into a wireless network attached storage (NAS) server, ideal for storing all your media files in one place, and giving it the name of 'Wireless Media Router'.

A previous press-release already informed about their plans where it says:


In addition, the integration of a USB 2.0-compliant interface makes the WGT634U the industry's first home networking product to enable the connection of an external storage device, such as a high-capacity disk drive or other USB memory device, for centralized network backup or storage and sharing of files and multimedia content.

Also checkout this datasheet I found for more info.
