There are problems with fake USB pen drives claiming to have a larger capacity than in reality. H2TestW tests the size of USB memory sticks.

They mean to say serial port.
I have an access point with a USB port on it. It also has a console and ethernet port. What is the USB port used for? At first I thought it might be the port used for serial but rechecking using google that is the console port. It turns out the more modern routers can connect with other peripherals such as external hard disk and printer and even to a 3G dongle.
I think there might be exceptions such as with the Alfa AP121U access point. When you flash it with Pinneaple router you use the USB port.
The PendriveApps.com website has much USB related and based software. It is a good place to go looking to see if there is a software tool for what you want to do. However I would go to the source of the software rather than downloading from this site.
I originally found this site because of wanting to evaluate USB drives with H2testw. This is a relatively popular site and the focus is a formula that seems to be sucessful.
