difficulty using Station Mode

PHKs50

I connect my Seestar s50 to my wifi network that is connected to my Windows PC. I get the IP Address and type it into the address bar of Windows Explorer but it doesn't show any files on the Seestar. Are there network, firewall, and security settings that I need to change on my PC in order to use Station Mode?

You can transfer files through this link tutorial. https://h5.seestar.com/course/79218

Support@Seestar Station mode work fine but for some reason I can't log in to my seestar using the ip adress. When I type my seestar ip in a file manager window, it opens-up my Download folder. Worked before, don't what has changed. Pure mystery to me.

I have no problem following the tutorial. The Seestar s50 connects to my wifi network. Seestar shows as one of the devices on my FIOS wifi network. When I enter the IP address in the Windows Explorer address bar, nothing happens.

Turn on the Wi-Fi on your computer, manually connect to Seestar's Wi-Fi, and then enter \10.0.0.1.

When I manually connect my pc to Seestar's wifi and then enter \10.0.0.1. in the address bar of Explorer I get:

Windows can't find '\10.0.0.1.'. Check the spelling and try again.

When I enter \10.0.0.1. in the address bar of Explorer, my computer asks for my network credentials. What do I enter?

Thanks, Philip

I hope this is a typo \10.0.0.1. It should be \\10.0.0.1. With a double backslash.

PHKs50 Use the "guest" account. That works. Then it asks which folder you'd like to mount. I don't know the exact folder name but it's the folder the starts with a capital E. (EWCF Folder?? Not sure)

You just need to connect your computer to Seestar WiFi and enter \10.0.0.1, provided that you connect your computer and Seestar's station mode to the same home network.

I thought the correct configuration is for my iPhone to be connected to the SeeStar via the SeeStar Wifi and I use the Station Mode to connect my SeeStar to my home wifi network which is simultaneously connected to my PC. If I connect my PC to the SeeStar WiFi then won't my PC not be able to communicate on my home network?

Are you referring to the Guest Account on the SeeStar Wifi or the Guest Account on my PC?

Support@Seestar

PHKs50
Yes, but you can disconnect after the file transfer is completed, or use broadband.

Support@Seestar

PHKs50 When transferring files via WiFi, the computer will ask for a certain identity to enter.

If your Seestar is connected to your home WiFi network, you need to find its IP address and then in Windows Explorer enter the network address formatted like \192.168.1.123\EMMC Images\MyWorks\ in address bar
It should immediately connect.

If access error:
You may need to allow "insecure guest access" so that you can access the SeeStar guest id:
Open gpedit.msc and navigate to Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Network > Lanman Workstation
Find "Enable insecure guest logons" and enable it.
