External/NAS hard disk access?

[benbranson]

Hi,

I'm a bit new to all this, just thinking about buying an ameo & this might be the stupidist question ever asked on here but......

I have a Wifi network set up at home with NAS (namely a netgear SC101) and I was wondering if it was possible to access this storage from an ameo/advantage? Also would it be possible to print to a networked printer? (samsung ML-1510, B&W laser).

Thanks in advance for your help!

In my office, I just opened up File Explorer and key in \\nasserver\data\folder and was able to access the files as if I am on my laptop.

I think it depends on how your printer is setup. I have a networkable psc 2575 and I cant get it working but have read other posts in this forum that suggest that it is possible.

I dont know about the printer (although it should be possible), but accessing storage over the network is trivial. VMbrower, Resco Explorer or the plain integrated explorer works. I prefer, like many others here it seems, Resco explorer.

I'm using for years ( before with MDA III, Universal) and now with Ameo old but not bad Asus WLHDD - wireless network disk ( you can find it very cheap now) .
No problem with connectivity .
