Can the 752 directly access files (FLAC,WAV) stored on a USB drive connected to my Airport Extreme (either via WiFi or Ethernet)?

Yes! the 752BD has three USB 2.0 ports and you can use any of them to plug in a USB drive and play stored music, movies or photo files; In addition, the 752BD can also actively search and access music, video and fotos files from media servers/devices connected to your home network via Wi-Fi or Ethernet.

According to the manual, this device supports the following: AC3/DTS/MP3/WMA/WAV/OGG/AAC/APE/FLAC and you can find their manual online at: http://www.incredisonic.com/imp150.html where you can see their manual as well. I hope that helps!

I just got one and connected to my laptop with the USB cable that I already had. I was able to see the recorded files as .wav and was able to copy it without any problems to my laptop hard drive.

I have not done this BUT, according to the setup manual:"...You will be able to access files from a USB externalhard drive or thumb drive that is plugged into the router from your local network or from the Internet using either a webbrowser or an app for your smartphone or tablet..." so I don't why the other two respondeers said no to you.

I bought the drive to use as a drive to store books, movies and photos. I'm not sure if it is a backup clone of an intel Mac with Mavericks. I know it works very well for what I bought it for. However, I am getting the Airport by Apple to use with Time Machine. It should arrive at my house today. That boosts your wi-fi as well as backs up automatically.

unfortunately, this is the one feature that the unit lacks, which is somewhat odd since it has all the hardware support to accomplish this, e.g., a USB port. It would be fairly simple to add this feature with updated firmware. The alternative is to install some some software on an "always on" PC or mac, which the siesta flow locates via WiFi and stream your music collection that way. The good news is the firmware can be updated via the internet, so perhaps future updates will include this.

Well, I do not know as it seems pretty neatly closed, but there is always the alternative to use an external and/or network accessible drives. That's what I do over a Gigabit network. Good luck.

I love this drive. I'm about to get another. Yes, it can be connected via USB to your wireless network and accessed by multiple computers that way. Hopefully that answers your question.

What types of files can be played from that flash drive if connected to USB port in the front? 320 kbps MP3? FLAC?

You can read the files, bit you cannot transfer to it unless it is inserted into usb port..

You can. My drive was formatted NTFS via usb and i connect to my Mac via Firewire 800 with no problems.

Probably not. This model is a network drive. I use it to store and retrieve data/music from many different computers on my LAN. The USB version should be able to boot directly to a computer.

The Transporter requires an Ethernet (preferred) or Wi-Fi connection to your network. The USB port is for connecting an optional TP-LINK TL-WN823N Wi-Fi adapter. If your AirPort Extreme has unused Ethernet ports, you could connect a Transporter to one of those.

Hi, unless you connect the drive using a usb cable you will need wifi connection to use the drive. The drive itself provides wifi connection as it is a router. You of course will not have Internet access but will be able to transfer files and play media unless and existing Internet connection is active to a. ccess both the drive and Internet

In one word- yes. You can do it by either connecting a cable or using the FileHub's own wifi signal.

Yes, it only provides access to the drive via USB. You will need separate software for reading different filesystems (e.g. reading a windows hard drive from Mac / Linux) or any other operations you want to perform on the drive.

You'll have to use the USB port as this unit come's with the old plug, not the Thunderbolt Or you may add an Airport Express and wireless connect your music from any of the apple or other brand's gadgets or phones This equipment has pretty good sound, specially of you combine it with a sub-woofer, the frequency responses are excellent.
