A wireless dongle. It is best to check the compatibility list at Synology for this product: https://www.synology.com/de-de/compatibility?search_by=products&model=DS216%2BII&category=usb_wifi_dongles&p=1 For example, the following product is supported: ASUS USB-AC56 (USB 3.0, 866Mbps, 400Mbps)

I think there is not much difference. I would recommend another software Kodi, because with Plex I already had problems with the playback. I have a DS216+II myself. I never had any problems with Kodi. And Kodi is free and is constantly being developed. Works with NAS and external hard drive.

Hi Raphael You can imagine the architecture of a network at home like this: There is a home highway with a speed limit (intranet or home network). This highway runs through the switch and has a speed limit of 100 or 1000 Mbps, depending on the switch. This speed is shared by all those currently on the home highway (e.g. your PC, your friend's PC, the TV and the mobile phone connected via the WLAN). Then there is an exit from the home highway into the public transport network (Internet). This exit is formed by the modem and the speed at which you travel there is determined by your contract with the internet provider (you write that you travel slowly). When you buy a NAS, you connect it to your home highway. Data (at home) is uploaded from the PC to the NAS at the speed specified by SWITCH. At the same time, you can access the Internet at your normal speed. The situation is different if you access the NAS at home via the Internet (e.g. from work). Then the data goes via modem and shares the speed with everyone who is also surfing via your modem. However, internet access always remains possible in this constellation, it just becomes slower. -The explanation contains technical inaccuracies to make the text easier to understand. Best regards Juy

Hello Tonytony Well, I don't need this function any more. But I had already played about 150GB of music via the app on my old Synology and never noticed that there was a limit. I assume that this will not be the case with this newer model either.

the 216+ II has: - Intel 64Bit architecture - More powerful - and a few other SW-Synology features But if you only need the standard apps from Synology and want to stream video (4K), or run photo albums, file management, then the 216play is also sufficient. The 216+II is more for demanding users who, for example, want to manage several files at the same time or have several simultaneous accesses (the 216play can also do this, but with less performance), etc.

Yes, and even better the successor Nextcloud on the WebServer (WebStation). Or Synology's own solution with Cloud Station Server and the clients for PC or smartphone. https://www.synology.com/de-de/dsm/6.0/cloud_file_syncing

I use DS Video on Apple TV - works perfectly (incl. DTS transcoding). However, I don't transcode UHD, only 264, so I suspect that the reason for the judder is a too weak internet connection.

The description says "empty enclosure", so there will be no hard drives included. With the DS216j, you can either buy the "empty enclosure" and install hard drives yourself, or buy the "NAS hard bundle" with hard drives already installed in the corresponding size.
