Model: RE450  
Hardware Version: V2
Firmware Version: 1.0.4 Build 20171220 Rel. 7

Hi,

 

is it possible to connect a NAS to the TP LINK RE450 via it's ethernet port so that I can access (read/write) files on it from my laptop connected to the same wifi network? 

 

Best wishes

 

Nathan

Hello Nathan, the LAN port of RE450 can be used to access internet with wired connected. 

 

And theoretically, you can connect the NAS to the LAN port of RE450 and the the devices in the same network can access it. 

 

May it help.
