do all ar7 router support usb otg or does it depend on router specific mods by manufacturers i.e. hardware additions
what i want to ask is is it possible to add devices to usb ports on the ar7 router (like a usb drive / a usb printer) if the manufacturer never intended it to be attached [if the specs didnt say you could ] by using linux /RT firmware
i think i'm going to be disappointed with the answer

The USB ports are not active. All that they can do is emulate an ethernet port.
