Another stupid networking question
...except it is not stupid.
I have a cell phone with wireless capability. The new LG840G, a GSM handset from TracFone. Their first touch screen, 1600 by 1200 camera, MP3 ringtones (my last TracFone, just a few years old, used MIDI files). It's a very nice "slab" phone.
I typed in my 63-character WPA key (you read that right), then pointed my main PC's browser to 192.168.1.1 (WRT-54GL with DD-WRT firmware) and the phone did receive an IP address.
Now what? Can I ftp files onto it? Can I put it in Windows' "network neighborhood"?
I'm pretty clueless with networking, and obviously I can't pop a setup CD into my phone or anything.
(I can transfer files using a USB cable just fine.)
Even with TracFone's firmware, the phone should behave somewhat standardly. Can anybody tell me the basics, or what might be possible, as far as storing files wirelessly?
(This phone has bluetooth, but bluetooth has always been a pain for me.)
Thanks in advance!
