Connecting Wi-Drive over Wireless
Wi-Drive is its own independent wireless network. When browsing for Wi-Fi networks from your iPad or iPhone,
you will see ‘Wi-Drive’ in the list of available networks to join. By default, there is no password and when you
connect to it from your iOS device, you are establishing a dedicated link to Wi-Drive over that wireless signal.
Once you connect to Wi-Drive, you will substitute your iPad/iPhone’s Internet connection with Wi-Drive’s wireless
connection. This means you will no longer have access to the Internet. However, Wi-Drive does provide a
bridging function that allows you to maintain access to Wi-Drive’s content while connecting to a Wi-Fi Internet
connection. See
Accessing the Internet (Bridge Mode) on page 14.
Usage
Once you’re connected to the Wi-Drive’s network, you can begin accessing its content from your iPad, iPhone, or
iPod touch device by following these steps:
1. Open the Wi-Drive App on your iPad, iPhone, or iPod touch device.
2. Tap the Wi-Drive icon (upper left corner of Wi-Drive App.)
3. Tap the Device Name link, i.e. Wi-Drive (192.168.200.254) . This will list the contents of your Wi-Drive.
4.
Browse and select the media you wish to access. Only supported file types can be opened. See below.

the Wi-Drive regardless of type or extension. If
you created folders during the content upload
process on page 7, you will see them listed
first. Individual files are listed after the folders.

will search through all files and folders on the
