Directly connecting to RN628X
I have an old RN628X that I can't connect to an LAN. Is it possible to directly connect to it and use it as an external drive?
I think that answers my question. We aren't allowed to have servers on our ethernet, so I was hoping I could still utilize it as a direct connect external hard drive. Thank you for your help!

One option that might be possible is to connect the ethernet on the RN628x directly to your PC (using wifi to connect to the network). Then you can set up a static address on the RN628x, and access the files.
