Hi all

 

I'm using the standard Windows 10 file sharing from my main PC. This main PC has a cabled connection to the router. The router is the Vodafone HG659.

 

Other devices on the network are as follows; 1 Laptop, 2 Phones, 2 Games consoles, a network receiver and a Smart TV.

 

None of the devices are using a static IP address.

 

Ideally, I'd like to be able to choose which folders\shares are shared with specific devices on the network, e.g. the network receiver only gets the music share. 

 

Is this something that can be done using the standard windows 10 file sharing?

 

Or is this where a NAS device comes into the equation, is that something they can do?

If each device has the ability to store and submit user details and connect to SMB version that W10 allows. Then you can use sharing/ntfs read permissions with different path and user access levels.
