Step 5
Open GoodReader's WiFi-transfer page, keep it open all the time while transferring, note the IP-address on this page (you gonna need it in Step 6)

For security reasons and to save your battery power transfer is allowed only when you're on the WiFi-transfer page. You can open this page with this button on the main screen of GoodReader:

This button brings up the WiFi-transfer page:

The important things here are:
- antenna logo at the top, it should indicate a strong WiFi signal (if you don't see this logo, then you're not connected to WiFi network - go back to Steps 1 and 3)
- WiFi status: ON (if it's OFF, then you're not connected to WiFi network - go back to Steps 1 and 3)
- IP-address (if you don't see it, then you're not connected to WiFi network - go back to Steps 1 and 3)
Don't get confused by the "Connection: waiting..." line. It's perfectly normal. It doesn't mean that there's any WiFi network problem, it simply means that nobody tried to access GoodReader yet. Once you initiate a file transfer from your computer, this line will immediately change to "Connection: established". This line is mainly for troubleshooting purposes - if you're experiencing problems with WiFi transfer, this line will be a good indication where to look for a problem.
Note the IP-address, you will use it to initiate a connection from your computer.
IMPORTANT: IP-addresses change from time to time, even if nothing else changes in your setup. So please don't assume that the IP-address is the same as it was during your last transfer session, check this address every time when connecting.
