Home LAN file sharing, easy to connect mobile phones and computers

The so-called local area network file sharing, refers to a computer through the network and other connection methods and other computers to share files between a way. Sharing can be convenient in the LAN file sharing, is conducive to improve work efficiency. Nowadays, many families have a lot of devices that can surf the internet, such as desktop PCs, laptops, WiFi handsets and so on, most of them are online through a router, thus forming a small home area network. So how do we use this local area network to achieve the purpose of sharing files?

Tips: A local area network is a group of computers interconnected by multiple computers in an area.

Common LAN Scenarios:
1. Sharing a wired or wireless router with family members
2. Unit shared hub, switch, router Internet
3. A computer connected by a switch on a school campus (for example, all computers or smart devices connected to the Xiaonei on the same floor)
4. Two computers connected by a network cable (note: The theory is the crossover network cable, but now the network card generally support parallel network cable)

Mobile device access to files within the LAN: (for example, using the re file manager or ES File Manager, you need to know the intranet IP address of the shared side)
Specific steps:
Open the phone file re file Manager, choose Add, select the SMB device, installation, such as add, OK to see all of the computer share, OK, you can see just the shared folder, click to access.
If you use the ES file Manager, in addition to manually add, you can also directly click the scan, you can scan the local area network shared devices, according to the IP to find the corresponding computer, enter the password, you can also access the shared folder

Common LAN file sharing related issues:

If the network cannot connect, first check that the NIC driver is installed correctly.
Then check if you are in a local area network (you can see if you are on the same gateway through Ipconfig), and then check if the device has the correct IP address (or if there is an IP address conflict), you can ping each other's IP address to determine if the network is unobstructed
If you are troubleshooting configuration issues, consider whether a virus exists
If the network does not ping, then you can restart the router, switch, hub and other devices, and then re-test
If you still have problems, you can consider hardware equipment or network cable break, poor contact and other problems

In addition, if you want to share the LAN file, it is highly recommended to set the administrator password for the computer, in many cases the system does not allow the Administrator account without password remote login.
