How do I transfer files over a wireless network?

Question

I've tried the windows files and settings transfer wizard and an ftp client but i can't get them to work

Answer 1

Two options:



1)Your system may have an infra red. So just align the two units for the transfer.

2) Try using the XP File Transfer Wizard; with direct cable via cable that connects your computer/s serial ports.

Answer 2

Open My computer select any folder of files that you would like to share......Lets use MY PICTURES for an example. Right click and select share. Go through that process to share. Once its done select the option that says continue without making a boot diskette.



Go to Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Computer Managment > USERS and set and enable a password for the guest account.



Then get your computers name of Preferably the IP address. Go on another computer and search "A computer on the network" type the IP in, if the computer pops up double click log in with the password you set and there ya go..... If this does not work make sure you enabled File and Sharing in windows firewall and your network connection...

Answer 3

The easiest way is to use the Microsoft peer to peer file and printer sharing called "NetBios" that comes free with the operating system. After setting up your ethernet Local Area Network (LAN), try using the MS network setup icon in the control panel. There's also a Wireless network setup wizard icon. Basically, you designate file folders on all your computers that you authorize file sharing privileges on. Then you can drag and drop files to those folders so that any PC on your network can see them.

Answer 4

The same way that you transfer files over a wired network.

Answer 5

relies upon what computer you've. If MAC, then move through bluetooth and your cyber web will be loose as chicken; having the flexibility to surf the cyber web as a lot as you want. in case you do not have a MAC attempt downloading different cyber web engines, it could be the equipment engine you're utilising.

Answer 6

Not that hard: at one computer, share a folder. Connect the other computer to that shared folder.

Sharing a folder can be done by right clicking it and selecting "Sharing and Security".
