Can I bypass connection to modem?

Computer and internet are in two different rooms. I live in an area with slow internet speed. I’m not having great success using My Cloud, as my photo backlog is in the thousands. Can I connect directly to my computer and just transfer photos there without using the Ethernet to modem connection?
