Does this router allow sharing files, printer, etc.?
When I read the specs and description of this router, it seems to only talk about internet firewalls and VPN related features and nothing about sharing files, and printers.
Does it do that as well? I'm confused. LINKSYS BEFSX41 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16833124007 |

Re: Does this router allow sharing files, printer, etc.?
Hello, Welcome to TSF
As far as I know, a router is only a connection sharing tool. File and Printer sharing are part of the connection itself and therefore have no connection to the router. In other words, regardless of what router you use, you should be able to share files and printers. I may be wrong, hang around for a more definitive answer
