I was told by the call center guy that with Linux I MUST use a router and cannot connect the disk directly to my PC. Is that true? He even offered me two options for router costing Rs. 3500/- and Rs 4500/-. Can someone clarify?
Router is not required for that. The modem has RJ45 connection. The IP address is allocated from the DHCP server. Also if you want to share your connection, you can go for router which can be rented @ Rs.100/month.
