Hi, I've recently purchased an Arc s, excellant phone, but can't seem to connect to my pc (using pc companion) via my wifi router.


The phone is not modded in any way, it connects to the router and the internet perfectly fine, just can't get pc companion to connect.

It connects fine via usb, when I'm following the instructions, i can get my pc to show up on the phone as a trusted device, but then it gets stuck in a connecting loop, the phone shows as connection, and on pc companion it says it will go to the last step automatically.


I have had the occasional connection problem to the internet via wifi, but think I've solved them now. The connection to the pc has never worked.

Any pointers would be great, as my partner also has a Neo, but I thought it best to get mine working first


Also pc is running windows 7 home premium x64, Router is a Netgear WNR2000v2 and is connected to my pc via ethernet cable


Many thanks

P.s I've also had trouble setting up a ftp network. Dont know of they could point to some thing. I've followed guides but to no avail.
