I am using a normal Wi-Fi router, a smart phone and a Laptop for this process. 

01. My smart phone and Laptop already connected to the Same Wi-Fi router.

Click on share and Click on arrow and find everyone in the drop down list. click on add. Give the required permissions as you need. Click on Share. Then go back and click on advanced sharing on same folder properties. Tick/Check the box as share this folder. Then click on permissions and give permissions that you need and then click on Apply and Ok. See below Screenshots.

04. Go back and Click on Network and Sharing Center on right side. Then click on Change advanced sharing settings. Then you need to turn on network discovery and file and printer sharing under Private drop down list. In All Networks drop down list, you need to turn off password protected sharing. 





05. Click on search bar and type CMD (Command Prompt) and click on it. Then type "ipconfig" command to find your Computer's IP address. Under wireless LAN adapter Wi-Fi you can find your IPv4 address. Mine is 192.168.1.101.
