    Mac guy here, have little experience with PCs and LANs.

    I’m about to buy a PC slave for Vienna Ensemble Pro etc.

    The motherboard I’m looking at (ASUS PRIME Z490-P) has only one Ethernet port and no Wi-Fi or Bluetooth.

    Can I access internet via a switch and another computer (connected to the same switch) that has internet access?

    If not, should I find another motherboard or get a PCIe card with ethernet/Wi-Fi?

    Is there a reason to have my slave connected to the internet at all times?

    Also, what about file format between macOS and Windows, can I download/install VSL libraries on my Mac and copy them over LAN to the PC slave?
