Actually, the Seagate 1TB wifi hard drive can connect to the internet. While at a Disneyworld resort last week I used it as a repeater. Hotel wifi was strong at the door. Weak signal around the corner. I set the Seagate wifi drive near the door. Then from a tablet, went into settings to connect to hotel wifi. I still have access to all stored media. The real advantage to this is one could be watching a movie or listening to music and not miss an important notification. A friend bought one after playing with mine. He also uses it as a repeater to get to his shop elsewhere on the property.
Something I never really thought about. Good point.
At a campground with poor reception, put it in a ziplock and sit it outside on the roof.
