I would like to make a temporary WAP server on my computer. I will be using my mobile phone to acces files on tha WAP server. If I have my ip address and an open port 80, how can I acces files from my mobile phone? It uses GPRS and WAP format pages. I really would like to just access (upload) a particular file on my C: drive through the ip address from the phone. Any ideas on how to do this?

how does the computer get to the wireless access point?

both ends of the connnection have to hook up to the wifi some how, not just the phone.

is the phone 802.11b compliant?

If you run Linux/Apache, you can use the
Chiral Software Mobile Web Module to make
your web server into a WAP server. All text
and images will be reformatted to work. I
think the other poster who talked about
802.11b doesn't understand what a WAP phone
is.
