Good Day.

  1. You will have internet access to the drive if you set it up in the system options for remote access and create a Wd2Go account through the drive set up. You will not be able to connect remotely to the drive if there is no internet service though! You can connect to it when you are home on your wireless (or wired) network regardless of internet status, since you wouldnt be using internet to access it, but your local network.

  2. WD would have to comment, but according to the specs from their web site;

Power Dissipation

AC Input Voltage

 100-240 VAC

AC Input Frequency

 47-63 Hz

No problem, hope it all works out for you.

You do not need internet for theses device. You only need internet to access it remotely, so you will be all set to use it on your existing networking, regardless of wireless or not.
