Error 53? Help.

Post by *Bjur »

I have just installed tcmdwincearm.cab on my TyTN II device, because I was told Total Commander was the way to go when I wanted to access folders over wireless Network.
I REALLY wants to connect to my Synology server, so I can watch pictures and videos, but each time I write \\IP number\share folder it gives me error 53. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

According to Microsoft, Windows CE does NOT support IP addresses in UNC paths, see:
groups.google.com

So you need to access the device by its netbios name, if it has one...
