Do I need a computer to use MINIX NEO X7 or just a router?

Just a Ethernet cable or WiFi. No need for a computer. Also for a in detail review/rundown on the minix neo x7 check out supercharge ios on YouTube that's how I found out about the box.

It's a standalone unit. You do not need a computer for regular operation. You just need to connect this unit to your network via wired or wireless connection.

Technically you DON'T need a router if you have wifi connection to your computer or laptop you could connect this to your computer and place your computer centrally located connect up to four more devices via Ethernet. This device pretty much works like an extension cord or power strip, it is fed by the master drive and splits that connection into 4 different routes so you can plug in more devices (just like an extension cord plugged into an outlet). But, I would get a router with 4 or 5 ports and not even need this since you have no router already.

No, you don't need the Internet for it. However, I have to say that I've upgraded to logic Pro X. It is absolutely extraordinary. However, you do need an initial Internet connection for that.

These have both a bridge and router mode. So you can use them without an additional router.

you can but you do need a small router. the splitter cables plugs into the router and the router output connects to the network. that's my setup and it has been working fine for months.( $10 -$15 bucks router}

Just need a computer and plug it into a router. Have been using if for over 6 months, but my first one which I bought used died so I have a new one now.

you do not need anything as long as your router has the standard screw on back, but it is hard to screw on the back of the router. Also it is heavy and keeps falling down but not separating from the router. Make sure yours does not have these deficiencies. I do have clear for my internet which is slow and this makes the difference.

I do everything over wifi. I have a network hard drive that I share with all my devices. Conecting your Minix to your PC is only necessary for updates. I believe it doesnt do anything else by pluging it to your PC. Joe

No you don't need a dedicated router, but it makes life a lot easier. That was my motivation in switching from a Dewalt to the Porter-Cable 7518 when I ran into trouble with the clamp bolts. Two of the four bolts could almost be screwed out with my fingers. The other two were a bear and I had to use vice grips to get them out. I can't figure out what caused them to freeze up, but Jessum sent me some new clamps and bolts and everything seems fine now. It's a quality router lift and makes routing a lot easier than reaching under the table for adjustments.

You only need to connect it to your computer to set it up. Once it is setup you disconnect it from your computer and install it where ever you want. You never need to connect it to your computer again. The disc that comes with the router will walk you through the setup. Of course you do need to connect it by Ethernet cable to the box you were given by your internet provider. Also you need to plug it into the wall socket.

You will need a computer to set it up. After that, it only needs the wireless router. You can also contact Rosaewill with questions. Their customer support is actually pretty good.

NO. You do not need a computer to use this. You plug it in directly to the router. So it does not matter if your computer has Ubuntu Linus, Unix, or Windows 3.1, 95, 97, 98, ME, XP, Vista, 7, 8, Amiga Dos, Apple OS - Snow Leopard, Tiger, Lion or Maverick, it will WORK because it does not use them...

The connection the a computer is only required during the setup process. After the unit is connected to the network it works as a stand alone network device like your router. It just needs to be connected to a power outlet in a location where the signal strength from the router is at least 70%.

You do NOT need a wireless networking card for this product, i highly suggest though for this mother board when connecting to wi-fi to use a ethernet cable an not a wireless connector.

as a general rule the need for a computer, laptop or other, is only required for configuration. Neither of my Edimax units have a computer attached and they all function fine. This is a great unit and it should work well for you after configuration as extender, WAP or other.

For that I think you'll want a NAS unit that connects to your router by an ethernet cable. I believe this unit is simply designed for simple access from 1 computer.
