File server Wi-Fi equipment

File server

— feature that allows you to use a Wi-Fi device as a network storage for files. This function differs from the FTP server (see the relevant paragraph) in the protocols used; in other words, the “file server” in this case is a network file storage based on any protocols other than FTP. A specific set of such protocols and, accordingly, the functionality of a Wi-Fi device should be specified separately; we only note that it makes sense to use a file server mainly for accessing files on a local network (FTP is traditionally used for Internet access), and the files themselves can be stored both in the router’s own memory and on a flash drive or external hard drive.
