[QUOTE="bennjiboi, post: 1036178, member: 32785"] At home there is 2 users on a 'network' thats not defined as such. It goes a little something like this ADSL Model -> Wireless 4 port router -> I'm connected by LAN to my iMac -> My flatmate is connected by wifi I have a few questions: 1. Will I be able to connect my Ext Hdd to the router and use it as my time machine backup for my iMac 2. Will this be quicker then firewire 800 directly into my iMac 3. I read that you can make the drive shared so that more then one person can backup on the same hdd - True? Can it be done / Can it be prevented [/QUOTE]
