I've found the D-Link DIR-655 that has this function. Are there any others?

DIR-825 as well. D-Link calls it "SharePort" and it works for just about any USB device - printers, storage, etc. I set a client up with the 825 and then discovered I could update the firmware on my 655 to do the same thing. Pretty slick. Make sure you have the latest firmware and appropriate version of the SharePort utility as well; the 825 I put in had a lot of problems out-of-the-box.

D-Link actually lists several models with this feature: DIR-625, 628, 655, 825, 855, and DGL-4500.

Don't know offhand if anyone else is doing it, but I'm a D-Link fan anyway.

Sondy,

Thanks for the info. Are these all N or just the 655 and 825?

I'm leaning more towards the new FON router. (wwwdotfondotcom)
Seems to do it all.

But I'll wait for a few reviews first.
