Re: Transfer files using wifi?

Set up your computer with file and printer sharing turned on. Share a folder on your computer. Make sure your PPC is connected to your home router and is on the same subnet as the computer. Go into File Explorer on the PPC and pick Open from the menu. In the open dialog type "\\computername\sharename" and press enter. The computername is the netbios name of your computer and the sharename is the share name you gave to the file share folder when you shared it on the PC. Remember to share a folder on the PC you need to right click on the folder and select properties and use the sharing tab.
