I'm not sure I understand what you are asking exactly.
Are these computers behind a NAT router with the NAS on a different network? Is the NAS in a different location?
If the computers are on the same network, then they should be using different local IP addresses (generally starting with 192.168.x.x).
Hello Stephen B

In the range 172.16.0.0 – 172.31.255.255?

Our ipv4 is 172.16.XX.XX
As we share the same internet connection we have the same internet's IP adress. I don't know how it's set up nor how we are connected to the NAS... Sorry for that I am not an IT expert...
