ZyXEL NAS Link Capture - Hassle-Free File Downloads

The 'ZyXEL NAS Link Capture' is a browser-enhancing Chrome extension designed for ZyXEL devices. This utility allows users to send files for download directly to the NSA210 or other compatible ZyXEL home NAS device through a simple right-click context menu. It extends support lost by Firefox and IE plugins and enhances efficiency by allowing the NAS to independently complete the download, even if the user's computer is powered off. It also supports downloading of selected text as a URL and handling torrent files. This extension's operation depends on the 'Download Service' being enabled on the NAS.

It doesn't do what is supposed to do on my NSA310. I don't think that developer understand ins and outs of the Zyxel Download system. It needs to be re-written!
