what is wireless storage ?

You cal plug a external harddrive into this router and it turns into whats called "Network Attached Storage" and basically gives you a storage drive that can be saved to from any computer.

1. Is the ethernet port suitable for plugging in a printer and sharing it over the network? 2. Plugging in a USB flash drive means I can read/write and upload/download both directions? What kind of files? Only media (music, videos, photos) as described or documents (pdf, doc, docx) as well?

1. It appears to be "No".. the only ethernet port is used for internet connectivity. 2. Yes, the overview mentions ".doc, .docx, .pps, .ppt, .pptx, .xls, .xlsx, .pdf". Do a search for DIR_506L_DS_Overview_en.pdf for more information.
