Mounting remote CIFS shares

afgcons edited this page Apr 19, 2026 · 5 revisions

You can mount remote SMB shares on your router. The syntax will be something like this:

mount \\\\192.168.1.100\\ShareName /cifs1 -t cifs -o "username=User,password=Pass" -o vers=2.0

where:

  • 192.168.1.100 is the IP-address of the router ???
  • /cifs is the mount point on the Linux machine ???
  • user name and password are the same as the Asus login user name and password ???

(backslashes must be doubled.)

Anyone - please confirm / correct my "where:" guess work additon above !
