USB Printers and NAS connection to PACE 4111N

I recently subscribed Sonic DSL and everything works fine. Prior to Sonic, my DSL setup consisted of a DSL modem and a wireless router with NAS and USB Printing connections. Can I get my printer and NAS drive to work with PACE 4111N? Please advise!

moomadooda,
As I'm sure you've noticed there are no USB ports on the 4111N.
If your NAS HD and printer require USB connections you should be able to either bridge the 4111N (
https://wiki.sonic.net/wiki/Pace_4111N#Bridge_mode) or set up a LAN subport (
https://wiki.sonic.net/wiki/Pace_4111N#LAN_Subports) and connect your old router behind the 4111N to make use if it's USB ports.
Alternatively, depending on what type of printer you have, many network printers will allow a direct connection via ethernet or over the wireless. The same is true for most NAS drives and docking bays.
