How to use my laptop as FTP server, and to access it from a FTP client on my smartphone?
Do I need a wireless ruter or there is another ways?

You may use a wireless router or make a device-to-device (ad-hoc) connection if your laptop has wi-fi-adapter. And of course you need a working ftp-server on your laptop

ok I don't have wireless router.
I have a wi-fi adapter on the laptop and a GuildFTP server softoware.
How to setup everything?
Could you please explain how to set the ad-hoc profile on the laptop and what setings do I need on the smnartphone?
