That's probably why the Shareport functionality is spotty.  However from what I read this router does will have NAS functionality right out of the box.  Still you have to give credit for the people at D-Link for working hard on adding NAS to some routers.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Jorge]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 6th 2009 5:56PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on D-Link's Xtreme N DIR-685 router is also a digiframe / NAS device]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/06/d-links-xtreme-n-dir-685-router-is-also-a-digiframe-nas-devic/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/06/d-links-xtreme-n-dir-685-router-is-also-a-digiframe-nas-devic/</guid><description><![CDATA[What Engadget missed is that it also has space for an internal 2.5in SATA drive which makes it a lot more interesting, as you don't need some fugly USB drives hanging off the back of it.

And I've read that the Belkin N+ doesn't let you edit files on the drive from remotely connected PC's, so that's annoying. This router has the features, let's hope it works.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Blacksheep]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 6th 2009 12:08PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on D-Link's Xtreme N DIR-685 router is also a digiframe / NAS device]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/06/d-links-xtreme-n-dir-685-router-is-also-a-digiframe-nas-devic/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2009/01/06/d-links-xtreme-n-dir-685-router-is-also-a-digiframe-nas-devic/</guid><description><![CDATA[I'll wait for the next upgrade when this becomes 7" 16:9 1360x768 touchscreen LCD with built in 1TB HDD or [x amount]GB of SSD SATA (for photos, movies and widgets), dual channel wireless N router and bluetooth connection, built in photo size scanner/printer/fax, oh and add some DECT cordless phone to it too, and I'll believe that DLink has truely made an all-in-one router.
