I have an external hard drive that I connect to my laptop via USB cable.

If I now buy a USB hub and three USB cables. Can I then connect the external hard drive and the three computers each with a cable to the USB distributor?

The background is that I want to access this hard disk with three computers.

Simply share in the network… Need nothing to cable… Laptop must be on but then

ro

We have no network.

How do you get on the internet? UMTS stick?

Ta

No router, no internet?

Oa

Of course you have a network if you do not use a UMTS stick.

If you have a Fritzbox, then you can connect the external via USB. Then it is released in the home network for all devices.

And the Fritzbox is anyway on.

ro

Oh yes. I have an Easybox for the internet.

Ta

Then you also have a local network…

Co

Simply connect to the router.
