If I don't connect it to internet, will it still be able to transmit movies from storage through USB port to other computers by it own wifi ?

It should work fine as long as you have your local network set up properly.

It doesn't and you really wouldn't want it to. WiFi has enough trouble reliably streaming media and if both your media server and players use WiFi the quality can take a bigger hit. The same applies for SMB file and printer sharing.

yes you can but why would you?it is much slower then copy via USB and it will slow down all other connection on wi/fi from your laptop.for example your browser connected to internet will became sluggish.

It does not have wireless, only ethernet. If you have a dropbox account, it will sync it and be available on your network without having to be on your computer. Your wireless devices are limited to how fast your connection is. If you are going to use it as a media server, movies will have to be in the correct format. It is not fast enough to translate to your device. You will need the play version for that. If you don't mind re encoding a movie a few times, to get it wright, it will play movies just fine.

You need to be connected to Wi-Fi in order to transfer files between the two devices.

No, it definitely won't be *exactly* as if it was plugged in. When plugged in, Windows is going to view it as a drive, assign it a drive letter, and allow you to copy files to it via copy/paste, drag/drop, etc. I haven't confirmed it, but I can all but guarantee it won't work that way when accessing it via WiFi from your PC. In fact, my guess is, you can view content, but not alter it via WiFi. again, I haven't tried, but that would be my guess. If I get a chance, I'll try and let you know.

You have to hook it up with the ethernet cord to gain access to the internet, but you can watch what is being broadcast online through that. I believe if you spend sometime with it you might be able too. I really doubt it because there are only two usb ports on the box. One is for the mouse and the other can be for downloading the recorded content.

Hi, unless you connect the drive using a usb cable you will need wifi connection to use the drive. The drive itself provides wifi connection as it is a router. You of course will not have Internet access but will be able to transfer files and play media unless and existing Internet connection is active to a. ccess both the drive and Internet

Yes u don't need wifi internet connection. You only need to connect to the wifi from the file hub.

Yes it will work without an external internet. You do need a z-wave master controller of some sort to control it within tour home I.e. micasaverde.

Yes! It is Wi-Fi enabled and you can transfer the files via wi-fi either from your home network or from a remote place with Internet access!

No it does not require internet or 'wifi'. This uses a wireless connection from the camera to the receiver. The receiver then attaches to your tv or monitor via a rca video connector. The camera and receiver both need to be plugged in to AC power though, so it is not completely wireless.

No it needs WiFi to use the internet or you can put movies on a micro sd if you want to watchoffline

It does provide Wi-Fi, but to stream only from your Hard Drive/Flash Drive. So you cannot use that Wi-Fi to surf the Web or do anything else. That is only when you have a Ethernet Cable plugged into the device.

I've been able to transfer files to and from the computer with this but I have not tried to use it to connect to the Internet. I don't believe this would be appropriate for that, but I don't have a definitive answer.

Yes but not wireless if there's no internet or if you don't want it on the web
