Hi Guys!

 

Okay, so I have a huge folder on my laptop (around 110GB) which I want to transfer to my desktop PC. Now I can directly hook up my laptop to the desktop through a LAN Cable. But since my desktop is connected to my Router (D-Link DIR841) via LAN Cable already, I wanted to know if there is any way I can transfer that folder through the router (Assuming I will also connect my laptop to the router)

 

Any help appreciated!

Just plug your laptop into a differnt port on the lan port of the router and it will work.
