Time Machine Backup
CENTRIA supports backup for Macs using Apple Time Machine.
ReadySHARE Cloud
ReadySHARE Cloud gives you remote access over the Internet to the router’s internal hard drive or a
USB storage device that is connected to your router’s USB port. To enable ReadySHARE Cloud, log in to
the router and select ReadySHARE. Follow the instructions to register your router with the ReadySHARE
Cloud server. Use this feature to invite friends and family members to access the shared contents on the
USB device
Single Click SD-Card Backup
The SD card reader supports SD, MMC, MS, or MS Pro type cards. You can use the Backup button on the
side of the router to backup files and folders on an SD card onto the internal HDD. This is a convenient
way to back up files such as pictures from a digital camera.
ReadySHARE Printer
The CENTRIA makes it possible to share almost any USB printer with PCs and Macs on the home
network, through either a wired or wireless connection. With the CENTRIA, there’s no need to buy a
new printer with built-in WiFi to provide wireless printing to every PC and Mac on the network.
To test this feature, simply plug a USB printer into either of the CENTRIA’s USB ports and make sure the
correct printer driver software is installed on each PC or Mac that will access the printer. Then,
download and install the NETGEAR ReadySHARE Printer utility—available free at
www.netgear.com/readyshare
on each PC and Mac. Run the utility on each PC and Mac to complete
the connection.
Guest Network
Through the Genie interface, it’s simple to set up a guest network, so visitors can go online without
having to be given the home network password and without gaining access to computers, printers,
storage drives and other home-network devices.
