open up a browser on the connected computer and enter the ip address.

to upload a doc, you can just drag and drop from your computer.

there is no backup option, but you can download all docs on the remarkable to your computer. unfortunately, this is a manual process and you can only download one file at a time.

another option is the freeware application rM2 Template Helper at https://www.freeremarkabletools.com. it allows for more options that you may want.
Yes, I was aware of the USB web interface, and have used it. However it's not brilliant (or wasn't - maybe they improved it with recent updates, but I suspect not).

Currently I've no real need to use USB. If I did I'd look to Remarkable Connection Utility for more functionality than the built-in web interface provides.

I am still hopeful that rM will improve their own offering in this area before inevitably migrating grandfathered users onto a paid Connect plan.
