For some reason I do not see the "file sharing" option listed under USB and NAS on my router? Is it because 1.27 does not support file sharing?

Managed to set up mine Low Cost NAS. It works for me :). I have one question though. What are the options to make attached USB HDD accessible over internet from remote locations? And also being secure. So I can upload and download files from any remote location. Is it possible? Hoping! Great tutorial!

It takes about 15-20 minutes to transfer 670mb which seems very slow. What kind of speeds are you getting with a NTFS formatted drive?

USB-Parallel Cable With IEEE 1284 Bridge Model USB-1284 Item#:N82E16812270237 from Newegg All the info Newegg gives is that it's a single chip (ASIC). Package came with a mini-CD driver disk, but I obviously didn't need to load a thing. Just selected USB 1 & 2 support in Tomato and added the printer port in operating systems. I'm using the cable with an old Xerox DocuPrint P12. Hope this helps, Kevin Hi Robin,
