Try restarting your phone, your PC, and your router and then see if the problem is still occurring.

Thanks But No change and it was working so well.
Just to check I am pressing
Add a remote Location
SMB Is that right?
Typing in the routers number
192.168.0.1
Then my computer sign in details.
I have also tried my phone and tablet changing the last number
No joy

Trying to connect to your router's IP address isn't going to work out, you need to be using your computer's IP address. Do you have your router set to just use DHCP to assign IP addresses or have you manually assigned your computer a specific IP address?

Use the vastly superior MiXplorer Silver.

Compared to FM+...well, there's no comparison! File operations on my computers that take minutes with FM+ take milliseconds with MiX. There are many other reasons it's superior, but try it yourself if you're interested.

As for your connection problem, as @svim pointed out, it's not your router's address you need, it's your computer's. I've assigned static IP addresses to all of my computers, ranging from 192.168.1.100 on up. So, for example, if I'm connecting to my dining-room laptop, its address is 192.168.1.123. Supply the correct address, plus its login credentials, and it should work.

If you don't know the computer's IP address, there are various ways to find it. On Linux, the ifconfig command displays it.
