Reading elsewhere in netgear docs, netgear has more 'serious' NAS devices beyond the trivial USB 2 port on household routers. Those dedicated NAS devices do support samba 3 (and I guess 4) and higher levels of SMB 3. Netgear calls that ReadyNAS; they also call the storage on the AH router ReadyNAS, but I can't see which (old) v. of ReadyNAS it uses. The samba versions evolved to higher levels of SMB and Active Directory back in 2012 Dec (AD) and 2013 Oct (SMB 3). The latest firmware upgrade for AH's router is dated 2017 Jan, but its release notes are apparently only for a trivial admin pw alert fix, not anything related to some kind of big time upgrade of the NGOS capabilities. -- Mike Easter
