[QUOTE="Lifeisabeach, post: 1624065, member: 38864"] No sweat. It just may give a clue as to what to do. I forgot to mention that you could plug the ethernet cable direct from the Synology Diskstation into your Mac, and set up the Mac to act like the router. That's called an ad-hoc network. Here's a link to a tutorial. Scroll down to the part for an ethernet (wired) connection. [url=http://www.maclife.com/article/columns/maclife_101_how_create_adhoc_network]MacLife 101: How to create an Ad-hoc network | Mac|Life[/url] Doing it this way, you'd still access files on the Diskstation as you normally do now, but you are completely bypassing the router.
