Title: ? Accessing my phone via wireless network ?
Post by: Gray_Area on April 10, 2012, 03:44:43 pm

I have a wireless modem. I have accessed it with my phone. I can upload videos directly to the net.

However, I want to access my phone (via the modem) from my desktop PC, so I can move over files for storage and such. How do I do this?

I'm sure there are other ways but I use Wifi File Explorer. It was an Amazon free app of the day at one point. Does the job.

or dropbox.  2gb free.  If you're interested in that let me recommend you so i can get 500 more mb I'll never use.

That's a pretty neat app. However, for real-time viewing of all file types (let alone transferral - you can't group select), it's better to connect by cable. I was just having problems with the drivers for my phone on this computer.

That's what I have a wireless router for.
