Finally...ftp over Bluetooth...Phew!!PC file Browser on 7650

So guys, one more addition to Bluetooth capabilities. Yftp works on Bluetooth 😃 In pretty much the same way other applications using this method work. A very brief outline...

1. Setup ftp server on PC
2. Enable BT connection on phone
3. Connect mRouter
4. Connect ftp using your PC internet accesspoint 😃 😃

Note:
1. It may return "Access denied" error. Ignore, and connect again. Usually connects the second time at the most.
2. GPRS G may flash a while, but is normal. Rest assured, i have verified the phone ip...same as computer ip (Will be different if connecting via GPRS)

Now i have some problems with yftp (Trial version of V1.1) on both Gprs and BT
1. I see only folders on pc. No files (if i open any folder, i dont see anything in there)
2. I cant upload files (only downloads empty dir/folders 😞 Also, it disconnects me when i try to upload anything

Anyone else with these problems?

would you care to explain how to create this "pc internet access point". Would this mean I could also use webviewer over my broadband internet on my computer?
when i create a new access point, i can't really choose to use bluetooth as a connection or somehting like that.. So how did you do this?
