Still loving the Sandisk Connect Wireless even though Sandisk no longer manufacturing due to their marketing on its basic features. I posted how I use it as a Plex like audio/video web server because you can access its links from a public website and share with anyone on whatever wifi or hotspot it is connected or the basic html required can be accessed/stored directly from the Sandisk for non-internet access 4-7 people can access its content using this method.
I Have the 200 GB version. It works well with my iPhone, Android tablet, Mac and even smart TV. But when it comes to my windows 8.1 Laptop I can only connect using the USB port. Wireless connection using a web browser does not work. I have exhausted every forum and finally I am coming here. I connect directly to its hotspot and type: www.sandisk.com/myconnect but it doesn't work. I tried the IP address: 172.25.63.1 but it still wouldn't work. I connected the device to my home network but my browser wouldn't access the drive after typing its IP add. It connectes to my Mac but not PC wirelessly. Can you help??
Thanks for this video.. you mentioned in your video that the WiFi feature can be password protected. Now here comes a question, what if the flash drive is connected directly to the computer via USB port, it still be password protected ?
Hardik Patel No, It is not a downside you can connect this to your WiFi in the settings inside the app connect to the WiFi you connected it to and launch the app and it will work like magic.
Very nice review and more informative to the point

Can you leave it plugged into the wall and stream video and content from it continually. Basically utilising it as a file server

Do a quick wireshark packet capture to see why it's not connecting? Is the device has wifi security? Remove security and try again.
how big can i get wireless in FAT format. > Thats needed for scanners, printers. Exfat or other formats don't work on printers.
Which is the better wireless & ixpand Flash drive
For iPhone 6
RUPESH DHAWADE No difference... I think the wireless
How can you top up data if data runs out?
can you connect to the drive with a 3rd party app like FileBrowser?
Bree Evian I own one, If your still interested I can check for you.
Bree Evian Ok, Just tried using FileBrowser go nothing popped up I doubt its different with the paid once’s
Can you store apps on it?
what hapens when the battery wears out?? are u locked away from your info??
Good question. I think you should be able to access them once you plug it back into a USB charger.

No
Is this a downside
If you are connected to the drive's wifi,you can't connect to ur own wifi and you will miss out you internet connection

Is it usb 2.0 or 3.0 ???????
