I just ordered a little device called HooToo Tripmate Titan from Amazon:
http://www.amazon.com/HooToo-Wireless-Companion-10400mAh-External/dp/B00RVIGY1I/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1440631075&sr=8-1&keywords=hootoo+tripmate+titan
It is a pretty clever little device that will transfer files between USB devices and will also work as a router in three different modes. Away from a computer, you need to use it with a cell phone or tablet (I tried it with an iPad) and HooToo has a free app for that (both Android and IOS). Basically, once it arrives, you set up the network portion of it - super easy. Then, have your phone or tablet connect to the Tripmate via wifi. The app allows you to control the file transfers. If you have a USB card reader and a USB external hard drive, connect both to a USB hub that plugs into the USB port of the Tripmate. The app will see both devices and then you can transfer files from your card to the hard drive.
When I purchased this a couple of days ago, Amazon had (still has right now) two nice promotions, one for 20% off the Tripmate and another for a free USB hub. Without the promotions, the cost of this device is $60.
I have only just tried out file transfers in my home to test the device out and it worked fine. I will be taking it on a trip next month.
