Can't connect to filezilla server on pc #84

Hello Thanks for this great app!

I'm noob here at GitHub so forgive me if that not the right section for this.

The thing is that i'll try so many times to see my hdd with video to play on the switch but unfortunately i failed... I have setup Filezilla server with/without password, simplifying the user name to 4 letters that even didn't work. Trying to manually edit the config ini network section and also by the menu in the app.

It would have been great to do an extend version of the readme to explain in more detail who to connect cause there many options out there! How to use stream url, network, upnp and so on! it's not that easy when you don't know.

And for last but not least if you can add a wifi/network icon next to the battery % for people to see if they are connect and if the signal is ok and not in plane mode.

Sorry english is not my native langage hope you have understand my words. And thanks again for your work, at least i can read from my sd card but not many places... Best wishes!

Thanks for the suggestions, for the ftp connection i will make some test wirh filezilla server to make sure there isn't any compat isse. Next version of NXMP has the test connection on add share to make a bit easier to try the net config. For the Wifi icon is a nice suggestion, good idea.

I am also having trouble connecting to a sFTP server, but I'm fairly certain it's not FileZilla, so unsure if it's the same issue or should be filed as a new one? Regardless, I'm able to connect to it from other devices on the network, so the problem is not server side. The server is running locally with all self-signed certificates, so I don't know if that could be an issue? (I don't even know if sftp uses those same certs or how that encryption works) . I know some apps/programs refuse to connect with self-signed certs, so maybe add a way to allow those, if that's the problem? Is there any way I can access some logs, so I can try to figure out what's going on? I have minimal experience with coding for the nx, so don't know where to start looking.

Edit: Scratch most of what I was saying; had a faulty config. Connection is still wonky, but created separate issue at #106
