ReadyShare using C7000v2 with Mac
I've installed a C7000v2, firmware v1.02.08 - wifi and routing working fine.
i've obtained a Seagate Backup Plus Slim 4GB (2GB is on the list of tested/approved USB disks for C7000.
I'm using Mac...

That's at "readyshare.routerlogin.net".
However, I cannot mount smb://readyshare, error is: [...]
That's at "readyshare". Have you tried taking a hint from the thing
which works, and trying "smb://readyshare.routerlogin.net"?
My memory is approximately worthless, but didn't someone report a

I doubt that this is what I thought that I remembered, but:

I'd expect "smb://routerlogin.net" to work, too. Why the DNS server
on the router doesn't seem (always?) to intercept plain-old "readyshare"
is still a mystery (to me).
