    I have an UPC 100Mb Thomson TWG870UIR wireless router. I want to connect an external hardrive which only has USB connection via the USB connection of the modem/router so that I can access it on my laptops vis wifi. Is this possible?

    no. the USB is only a service port for now. maybe future firmware will change that, but don't get your hopes up.

    Can I connect a drive through the Ethernet slots?

    Yes, if you have a NAS drive.
