Using Predator Connect W6 Router with NAS

Can I connect a NAS via the 2.5 Gbps Ethernet port to my Predator Connect W6 router and use it as a 4K streaming server?

Network-Attached Storage

A NAS (Network-Attached Storage) is a storage device that you connect to your network to store and access data via all devices connected to your network. NAS storage devices are user-friendly, fast and flexible and can expand your existing system if you need more storage space, for instance, for storing your favorite videos.

Predator Connect W6 as 4K streaming server

You can also stream the videos stored on your NAS via your Predator Connect W6 router by setting it up as a 4K streaming server. 4K streaming requires fully utilizing the bandwidth of your Predator Connect W6. To setup your Predator Connect W6 as a 4K streaming server, you need to manually configure the required upload and download bandwidth and priority weighting in the Predator Connect W6 Hybrid QoS settings.

For instructions on how to manually configure the bandwidth, refer to Predator Connect W6 Bandwidth Configuration within Hybrid QoS.
