: Connect LS-xl1.0TL via hotspot
: Happiours December 20, 2014, 01:47:11 PM
I now use a hotspot for all of my network and internet connection. I no longer use a Linksys router. But now I don't know how to connect to my Buffalo drive. I tried using a direct network wire from PC to Buffalo, but that didn't seem to work.  Maybe I can still use the router but not connect to the internet. Any suggestions would be appreciated. The answer may be on the forum, but I don't understand all of the jargon used?

Thanks

Connect it to the Nic of a PC/laptop and have a static IP set on the NIC to match the IP range the Linkstation is on. Use the NAS Navigator to determine the Linkstations IP.
