Guest hp1 Posted November 28, 2006 Report Share Posted November 28, 2006 Hi Apologies fro a new topic. I have just installed a router and have SSID broadcast on and WEP enabled. I can connect and surf with my phone but cant share files. I am using Resco File explorer. When I go to map a drive It says there are no computers near by which is blatantly not true! Do I need to setup a new network using the XP wizard? Cheers HP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest dr_nick Posted December 5, 2006 Report Share Posted December 5, 2006 i am having similar problem - can surf the net fine, but cannot connect/map to any of the shared folders... anyone got any suggestions? FYI i am only using the wm5 file explorer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest hp1 Posted December 6, 2006 Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 NIck, I solved my problem. It was a stupid mistake on my part. Under the 'properties' of my network connection there are a bunch of services, TCP/IP, etc, I had not checked the 'file and printer shring checkbox'. Once I had done that no problem. Oh yeah I also only use WEP encryption, not the one up from that. One more thing, I have never managed to use the standard explorer to connect to my PC, trust me, get Resco file explorer, its worth every penny.

Guest jimbouk Posted December 6, 2006 Report Share Posted December 6, 2006 It is possible to use the standard file explorer if you know the path to the folders - but as hp1 says a network-able file explorer is a lot easier to use! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest dr_nick Posted December 12, 2006 Report Share Posted December 12, 2006 he refers to file and print settings on the desktop not ppc i found a link in sk tools to "enable network file sharing in file explorer" on the ppc, but since i am now using resco file explorer (without any probs), i havent had a play with it :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
