Hi@Arrows_s,

Thank you for contacting our community.

 

With the Time Machine function, you can utilize the USB drive connected to TP-Link router as the backup disk of your MacBook.
Please login the router's web management interface and go to Advanced > USB Sharing > Time Machine to configure it. For detailed configuration process, please refer to this FAQ: How to use Time Machine function on TP-Link routers

If you cannot see the Time Machine option on the USB page, that means it doesn't support this feature.

 

Best Regards.
