WD Live Hub and Wireless Access from a PC

HI there

I just bought a WD Live Hub. About to connect it up. Will connect hub to a wireless router in my house that is connected to the internet and also connect it to a HD TV via HDMI. I understand that I can copy files from a PC to the hub via a wired connection.

Can I also copy files from a PC to the hub through the wireless router by mapping to the hub’s drive? . It would be most convenient that way. The PC in question is running Microsoft Vista. If so, how can I go about it. Is there a KB article that refers to this ?

Many thanks for any assistance you can provide

Just FYI, you’re in the wrong forum.

This forum is for the WDTV Live and Live Plus.

The Hub forum is here:   http://community.wdc.com/t5/WD-TV-Live-Hub-Media-Player/ct-p/live_hub

Yes, you can map the Hub’s drive in your Windows PC. 

In general, all you need to do is click the “Map Network Drive” icon in the Windows Explorer menu bar, then provide the name:

\wdtvlivehub\wdtvlivehub

as the resource, and it should work.

many thanks for this. Apologies for the wrong forum. Will repost in the correct forum.

Just to confirm, I can map to the hub’s drive from a PC wirelessly right?
