[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 904635, member: 24160"] The ethernet port found on external hard drives provides a wired connection to your router or computer via ethernet. They do not have provide wireless access. To do what you want in lieu of the Time Capsule, you'll need to purchase a wi-fi router and an external hard drive. You can save maybe $100 doing this vs the Time Capsule if you're purchasing a decent router, more with a cheapie router. [/QUOTE]
