The USB port is where you can connect an external USB hard drive or flash drive. Which can do a multitude of things. You can use in as a NAS, storage for a FTP server, use Optware to run external programs like torrent software, samba for sharing files to your network, share a USB printer with your network... The list of possibilities is long, it just takes a little research.
ProFTPd is included in most the newer builds of dd-wrt. Check the features chart to be sure.
A ftp server, file sharing, and a media sever is included in TomatoUSB if your device is compatable.
