NAS Compares did a great Video showcasing how you can Tether your Mobile phone to your (in my case) 2600 in case of ISP Failure. Either as a Fall Back or as needed via the USB Connector..
Before I start testing this option, my only concern is that I will lose my IP Address as it may change. This normally for most would not be an issue, however I have found when I needed to disconnect my gear and when it all was reconnected, my IP Address changed, and with that I lost all my Mapped Drives (7+ of them) to my 920+ NAS
It's a time consuming task to Re-Map all those Drives and I would like to avoid that. I just wish to insure that when I Test the Tether Option to my Mobile and disconnect the Modem from the Router, my IP Address will not change.
I've been presented with suggestions in the past to prevent my IP Address from changing, but that was above my pay grade.
Thanks ...
