workgroup connections

What is the easiest way to view my other computers and upnp devices on my home network through my Axim X30 please. I can easily connect to my home network via wifi and browse the internet. But I would like to be able to browse the files and upnp connections on the network. For instance, I would love to be able to view what my Roku Soundbridge is playing via my Axim X30. The Soundbridge is a UPnP device and therefore shows up on my network. I can double click on it and get to the browser based configuration page. Is there a way I could do that through my Axim?

Thanks in advance.

I'm not sure about the Soundbridge, but check the Networking your Pocket PC section of the WiFi Guide.

ikehiker,

Thanks, I was able to browse to my shard folders but the UPnP devices defintitely would not show. I will pick up Resco Explorer which will make the browsing workgroup computers easier.

Same question here. How can add an Axim to the workgroup and map it as a network drive; specifially would llike to have the CF card mapped as X64 support for WMP and other real programs like J. River Media Center is not working.

You cannot. The PPC does not have file sharing capabilities. There are ftp servers for PPC that you could use but I think that and ActiveSync are your only options.

if you want to map NETWORKED drives then use bizzdev netuse (i think thats the name) owever you cannot map the AXIM from another computer.

Resco File Explorer does see my network and maps drives but you're right the pc's can't see the ppc.

thanks
