I'm planning on adding a NAS to my home network. Currently I am running 3 wired pc's off my Asus router: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833320215. I was planning to add a 4th wired pc in the not too distant future.
The problem is I only have 4 RJ45 ports on the rear of my router so I only have one to spare
From my understanding, my NAS would have to be connected to my remaining wired router port. Is there any solution to this dilemma of mine. Most of the NAS units I've researched have a single RJ45 port. I did locate this Synology unit:

It has 2 ports. Would this work for me?
Thanks in advance for any input or advice you have for me.
