Can I connect a NAS device to MR1100 Nighthawk LTE hotspot

I am planning to connect a Buffalo link station but I would like to know if it is possible. At this moment my NAS is connected in my home network, but when I am away, I would like to be able to connect it to my Nighthawk LTE hotspot. Is this possible? I know that I should be using the ethernet port. Any ideas are welcome. Thank you.

Yes. I've done this using our NETGEAR ReadyNAS.

You'll probably want to update the firmware to the latest and set ethernet standby to disabled in the web admin GUI.

Also if you're going to have ethernet connected 24x7 you should use a QuickCharge 2.0 compatible charger and remove the battery.

Thank you mdgm. I am sorry I couldn't reply before... The NAS device that I would like to connect is the Buffalo LS220DE. I have tried to connect it but it does not show in MyMedia. Is there a process to connect it? Thanks again for your comments and help.
