Anyone know about ReadyShare? I've got 2 questions

 

  • How do I find out my network password? This is the screen when I try to log into a password protected folder https://i.imgur.com/7gTW0cJ.png. When I try my laptop credentials it doesn't work nor when I try my router admin/password. I want to know how to log into an admin read/write only folder. I am the owner of the router/modem and laptop in question so I can reset anything if needbe. Do I need to click on the box that says "use another account"? If so, what account do I use? admin/password (the default that I haven't changed for the router login) isn't working.

  • How do I access ReadyShare on Android? My main reason for setting this up was to allow file transfer without the need for bluetooth or data cables. I would like visitors to my house to able to log into the ReadySHARE from their phones and view a public folder I've created for everyone to use to add and/or view photos/videos.

    That's a Windows thing. It will depend on the network, how you have set it up, and the version of Windows.

     

    You would do better to find a Windows forum. Or check Google/Bing.

    With difficulty. Investigate ReadyShare and ReadyCloud and see if your device supports them.

     

    There is a manual for the C3700 somewhere at the end of this link:

    You'll also find the Genie manual there.
