    Asus RT-AC 87U lost both USB ports

    I have a 4T USB drive connected to the USB 3 port on my router that holds all my media. Today I tried to plug a USB stick into the USB 2 port on the back and something happened and now neither port is active. I've rebooted the router any number of times, Unplugged and reconnected the 4T drive...
