Connect 4g EE mini WIFI to NAS Synology DS218J

Does anyone know how to connect Synology NAS drive DS218J to an EE 4g mini wifi.
The new router box does not have an Ethernet cable which is how the NAS previously connected.

Are there any options/ workarounds? I have tried plugging the wifi box into the NAS via USB port but this did not work.

Thanks for any advice.

If the NAS can't connect by WiFi you can't use it with that EE mobile router.

You could try a USB to ethernet connector - but not sure if the router would allow connectivity to the Wi-Fi LAN.

What is it you are trying to connect to the Synology?

@Hollystorm1 Get a Wi-Fi repeater that has Ethernet connection on it.

It’ll be Wi-Fi to the repeater and then a wire connection to the Naz.
