Moving into a Shared House with only WIFI

2023-05-30 20:08:26

I'm moving into a shared house at the end of the week with only WIFI in the property.

The landlord has installed range extenders, however I want to be able to access my NAS remotely which requires it to be patched in via a network cable.

The range extenders that have a network port, are they capable of me networking in my PC and NAS via ethernet?

Has anyone had any experience or suggestions.

Hello, yes PC and NAS could connect to the extender via Ethernet cable for internet access as long as the range extender has Ethernet ports.

However, if you would like to access the NAS remotely, you will need to open related ports for the NAS on the main router, so please confirm if it is possible for you to manage the main router to do the port forwarding.
