Hello
I have a NAS but i want to connect it directly to my PC (for an annoying reason that isnt worth going in to). The only way I have found you can do this is with a cross over ethernet cable, but I only have one ethernet port on my PC and its got my internet cable in!
Can I just get a splitter and plug them both in? Also, how would I set up the NAS once its attached directly to the PC? Ive read you have to mess around with IP addresses which I dont really understand
Thanks very much
