Wi-Fi Wireless File Sharing With Resume Capability Now Possible With WirelessGet

-/Wi-Fi Technology Blogs/-The Wi-Fi Technology Forum recently released the WirelessGet wireless file sharing application through its sister site wirelessget.com and upgraded it to a new version. The most attractive feature about WirelessGet is its ability to copy over Wireless / Wi-Fi any files or folders with resume capability with phenomenal speed. That can be done from a network drive, local hard drive, USB Stick, DVD / CD or any other storage media (Including a wired LAN). As long as you have access and the owner is allowed to share with you, copying over Wi-Fi is a breeze, public or private Wi-Fi hotspots locations or access points are no exception.

Wireless file sharing is in the increase due to the popularity and integration of Wi-Fi technology in desktop and mobile computers (laptops or notebooks), PDAs and even mobile phones by manufacturers, which has now led to this technology becoming a household name. Most people refer to it as wireless, and what a good technology it is, no longer are we confined to our desktops at home or cooked up in our offices should we need to surf the internet. We can now be in a park, restaurant, hotel or even in trains and airplanes, we can still check our email, message family and friends, conduct business or run our remote servers and manage websites with ease. Having said that, any new technology never matures without teething problems, and Wi-Fi is no different, one of the problems is in file sharing.

All operating systems including Microsoft Windows™ with all its sophistication has a problem when copying files or folders from one laptop to another for example if you lost the wireless signal, though it's not the operating systems which is at fault here, sometimes the wireless signal drops out on you half way and you end up having to do it all over again, while this may not be very common, it is however a normal and expected occurrence when Wi-Fi networking.

To solve this problem, the WirelessGet application (http://www.wirelessget.com/) which is usable only under Windows™ at the moment, uses advanced and intelligent mechanisms to copy files safely and securely with memory and caching in mind. It also uses monitoring capabilities to know exactly when the signal was lost so it can save what has already been copied and what's left out for the next time you try and resume copying. WirelessGet does not rely on the size of the files or folders alone, but rather gets deeper into the files themselves using a sophisticated algorithm and count methods to avoid corrupting files when resume copying is initiated.
