If you read post 3 ,http://www.satfix.net/showthread.php?141966-How-do-you-set-up-quot-Net-Drive-quot-feature apparently its easy to setup , i just havent got around to step by step just yet . I imagine you need to setup shared folder on your windows system and allow sharing , I was abit lost on what index # to select and if i had to open firewall settings and open certain ports or if i am to set up Homegroup and go about it that way .

Windows 7 supports few different ways to share files over network but they all are just varios ways for creating a network shared folder. The easiest way is the homegroup feature of Windows 7, which automatically creates a shared folder when you use the Share with right-click menu in Windows Explorer.

The second way is to place the files that you want to share in the some of the Public folders, which are located in the /Users/Public folder on your system hard disk. Note that you may have to turn on the public folders sharing as it is off by default.

The third way is the most powerful but somewhat harder to set up Advanced file sharing (scroll down to the Advanced sharing section). This is basically the same way that is available under Windows XP and Vista and althrough more complex, it is also more logical and gives higher degree of control over what is shared and who has access to it.

Accessing your network shares from your smartphone with myExplorer

At this point you have a working Wi-Fi network and some network shared folders on one or more computers (or network storage devices - NAS). All you need to do is to add the network shares that you want to access to your myExplorer application on the smartphone.

Start the myExplorer application and you will see its main screen. On Samsung Wave phone, the Add button on the lower left corner of the screen. On a Nokia phone, tap Options menu and select the Add network folder option. This will open the Add network folder screen. Here, you have to enter the following things:
•Computer name. This is the network name of the computer that you want to access (see how to find out or change the network name of your computer). In the (very rare) cases when the NetBIOS name service is not enabled on your network, you can enter the exact IP address of the computer in the field Computer IP address. Even in such case, you can still fill the Computer name field to see more familiar name instead of IP address in myExplorer main screen.
•Folder (share) name. This is the exact name of the network share that you have created on this computer.
•Computer IP address. Optional field, use only if there is no NetBIOS name service on your network (i.e. almost never).
•WINS server IP address. Optional field, use only if you have a WINS server (this is the case only in some business networks).
•User name. The user name of the account that have the right to access the network share. You can leave this field empty if you are using anonymous (guest) account.
•Password. The password of the account that have the right to access the network share. You can leave this field empty if you are using anonymous (guest) account.

After you fill the required fields, tap the Save or Done button and you are done! You will see the new network share on the myExplorer main screen (it will appear in the form \\Atlas\Photos - Atlas is the name of the computer and Photos is the name of the network share). In order to enter the network folder, you just need to tap the network share.

If you receive an error message when trying to access your network share from myExplorer application, please check your error message (you will need to long tap the network share name and select the Edit command to correct the error in the network share settings):
•Network error. myExplorer can not find or connect to the computer. Check if you the computer network name is entered correctly, if the computer is turned on or your Wi-Fi network is working properly (i.e. if you have Internet access on your smartphone).
•Invalid user name and/or password. This computer requires a user name and a password. If you have entered user name and password, enter them again as they are not correct.
•Share name does not exist on this server. The folder (network share) name that you have entered is not correct (or this network share has been removed from the computer and is no longer available).
