Hello,
I'd like to be able to connect from my PC to my PPC using wi-fi, nit USB/ActiveSync. This is part of an effort to establish connection between all networked computers - one PC and two PPC, including the possibility to connect from one PPC to the other. I am not sure how much of this is possible, and will appreciate advice.
Currently I have:
DHCP enabled wi-fi router and assigned static IPs to both PPCs, e.g. 192.168.2.100. I try to access this via FileZilla by typing the IP or the host name (WM_Cheeseus). I never get beyond:
"Connection established, waiting for welcome message...
Error: Could not connect to server".
I can ping the device, but I cannot see it from Windows Explorer's Network Places (only see other PCs, not the PPCs).
From the device, I can ping the PC (192.168.2.102) but I get "request timed out" when trying to ping the second device, 192.168.2.109.
I think I am looking for the WM version of "sharing" my PPC's folders on the network.
So, what settings should I be looking for? Thanks!
