Re: windows shares with 4 routers
said by mustang03282  :from what i've been told Connection-specific DNS Suffix needs to be the same thing on all the routers unfortionally I can not find out how to change this on the actiontech routers. •Click on the ADVANCED icon at the top.

There are guidelines in the following FAQ for connecting multiple routers:
