I want to access some files on my friends PC remotely
He has an ADSL and a static IP (and he's behind a router). I have an ADSL and changing IP (and I'm behind a router).
He's using Http File Server on port 80
and we tried the port 55554 also and it did not work either.
Isn't this is the right way to get to his PC? to put http:// His_Ip:80/downloads
P.S: I've put a space in the link because I can't post more than 1 link due to my reputation.
1he should first try to connect to it from not his own computer 127.0.0.1 and next, from another computer on his LAN. Those tests will rule out the router. And it'd be h tee tee pee colon slash slash hisip:80/ where 80 is whatever port , and it needn't be /downloads just try the root http ://ip:port/ – barlop – 2010-11-18T21:44:37.310
