Default Connecting to a PC wireless?

I tire of having to go under my table to plug a usb cable to the back and connect it to my phone. What would be the best route to have my phone connect to my computer wireless for data transfers?

ES File Explorer App can connect to LAN devices.

Make a shared folder on your computer, and put files to transfer in that folder.

Open up ES File Explorer on the phone then copy and paste over.

Wireless tether + SwiFTP FTW!

I enable the tether, connect wirelessly, check ipconfig for the gateway, boom, that's the 'phones ip'. Enable FTP server, FireFTP thank you very much, boom CONNECTED. Browsing files & whatnot.

Love being rooted!

just be sure to turn off ftp when you're done cause you dont want to go around with that running all the time.

Another option is using Dropbox. It's in the market. Very cool app.
