Wireless file transfer to boox?

[ist]

Hello everyone,

As everybody here, I'm really enjoy reading and since I'm posting at Onyx sub-forum - you guessed it, lately I'm doing it with onyx boox device. But there's something that's bothered me for a long time and now, I hope community help will provide some insight:

Can you copy (ultimately read from) a network share, by wireless?

One can obviously use USB to transfer files to and from the device but it's a hassle (and there's always a risk to damage those gentle connectors), hence I was wondering, is there a way to access a network hare from onyx device?

I obviously have one (and will be glad to help anyone to setup such), it can be accessed by both NFS and SAMBA, that's where all my books are stored - can we all, at 2019, at least copy files to/from our devices by wireless? Be it native onyx feature or some working android app?

Thank you in advance

There are two ways, in Content Browser in APPS there is Transfer app, with your browser you can transfer the books that will be store in \WifiTransfer or you can use an app that does FTP server.

If device running Android - TotalCommander + Lan plugin (or another file browser with similar functionality).
