Wireless routers

I want to cover a huge area and provide wireless access... I'm going to use 4 wireless routers.  Should I give all the wireless networks that same credentials?

Short of purchasing an enterprise solution that will manage that for you, the answer is yes.. configure them all identically... but make sure they use different channel numbers.  

Give routers 1-3 channel numbers 1, 6, and 11 an then give the 4th one something like channel 8 and try to position it the farthest away from the routers with channels 6 and 11.
