I want to have an External Hard drive shared on my wireless network (encrypted for sure), but where its alone, and doesn't have to have the computer it is currently hooked up to on. .... any ideas how to do this... i saw something one time, but now i can seem to find it.
Also, is there any way that i can set up my network so that if i am at my friends house (on their internet), I could still access the network computers, printers, and harddrive (hopefully if i get it to work), as if I was still at home?
Thanks!

That's a pretty slick little device... it's the NAS version of the WRT54GL!
