Netgear WGT634
by Volker Weber
This was one of discoveries at CeBIT: The Netgear Wireless Media Router. What's media in a router? Simple: The router has a Samba server and a USB 2.0 port. So you can hook up an external disk drive via the USB port. Voila, instant file server. External disk drives sell for 1 Euro per gigabyte, so your file server is not only quiet but also cheap. Put your MP3s on the drive and stream them wirelessly to your stereo without firing up a PC. My recommendation for the drive: Look for a 5400 rpm Samsung. You won't be able to hear it at all.

Is this samba server also able to share an USB printer in the network? (Not yet willed to spend 70€ on a USBEthernet printserver for my HP PCS 2210 ;-))
Hallo!
Ich freue mich schon auf die ganzen schlecht/falsch konfigurierten Router im Netz. Dann kommt man nicht nur an fremde Zugangsdaten, sondern auch noch an ganz viele Dateien...
Hoffe mal, das das Thema Sicherheit da nicht einfach dem ganzen Feature-Wahn untergeordnet wird...
Gruß
@festus: Das gibts doch jetzt schon. Fahr mal mit einer WLAN Karte und Netstumbler durch FFM. UMTS und Internet per Handy ist out ;-)
Was sich auch noch ändern muss ist eben das Sicherheitsbewusstsein der Leute...
