q5 - laptop - internet connection

[adom_sapek]

I know there are tons of threads about this - but I cannot find an answer there. I gave up with this couple of months ago but now I decided to give it another try - and... nothing.

First of all:
I can transfer files via wifi between q5 - laptop
I can make remote desktop connection
but
I cannot use internet on q5.

I made 3 (all) types of networks (hoc) on vista 64:
open
wep
wpa2
(I cannot say if I was able to connect to each of them because I've been plaing with the "open" lately - and just don't remember).

In each of them I enabled internet connection sharing.
I start q5, open that "ar6k_sd1" window and after a moment I can see a network there (the one which is started in laptop)
I connect to it and all is fine - at least it q5 says that is connected (but on the comuter I don't see my q5 - I can see only: internet gateway device and my laptop)
When now I try use internet on q5 I get "cannot find server" error.

WHY???!!!!!
help.

hi would you please tell me how you can transfer files by wifi connection...!
i made an adhoc connection with disabled encryption in my q5 and connected to it with my pc but i don`t know how to transfer files...

You can share a folder on your pc, make it possible to modify files in that folder.
Then you go to Control Panel -> Network Drive on cowon, tap Connect...
You should put an address of the folder you shared in first textbox, and its local filename in second. The address is like on PC: \\<your computer's net name>\<the folder you shared>\

This resource, if connected right, will be available in \Network folder.

Like this:


I made detailed description here, but it's in russian (maybe you should register to watch): http://cowon.at.ua/forum/28-148-1

Also I tried FTP Server for cowon, and it works good (checked it with FileZilla), you just should know cowon's IP on LAN (this can be done by double tapping the network icon in tray on cowon).

http://depositfiles.com/files/4n2s2amm0 - that's FTP server for cowon, it will run in tray, and you can close it by double tapping the icon in tray and then tapping Exit. It needs no other files, only copy exe on cowon and launch.

2 adom sapek: try renewing cowon's IP by double tapping the network icon in tray and tapping Renew button in window. Also I found that wi-fi internet access on my PC works only if I make a network bridge between wi-fi connection and internet connection on PC (LAN in my case). Btw, the bridge is automatically created if you make a home net, using windows resources (don't know how it's called in english, my Winxp is in russian), but notice that it can be quite different for different PC's, so the bridge may be odd. I selected an option "this computer is directly connected to the internet, others connect through it" (smth like that), told PC that wi-fi connection will use the internet too (checkbox there). After 2-5 minutes searching and setting the network I had an internet access on Q5W.
