Sharing Large Files with Colleagues
Sending files that are larger than 5 MB can pose a problem for many mail systems. The
DG834GUv5 Wireless Router allows you to share very large files such as PowerPoint
presentations or ZIP files with colleagues at another site. Rather than tying up their mail systems
will large files, your colleagues can use FTP to easily download shared files from the
DG834GUv5.

for your colleague.
2. Specify a share folder on the USB drive that the colleague can access.
3. The remote colleague can use FTP from a Web browser or another FTP program to access the
shared folder on the USB drive. Access can be read only or read/write for remote users.
