Connect usb memory stick to router via ethernet?
Discussion
As my current router has a USB port I have a 64Gb memory stick plugged in to use as a NAS drive.
The router is being replaced (soon!) and the new one doesn't have any USB ports.
Without spending hundreds on a full NAS drive caddy is there a solution whereby I can connect the memory stick to one of the routers ethernet ports. I'm not sure if the available ports are poe so may need a 'device' that has external power to it.
Thanks
