What Is A MyHome Personal Web space?

Wave provides High Speed cable modem subscribers with a personal web space to post pictures, pages etc. Each MyHome account comes with 10 MB of web storage, and is availible in either FTP or Microsoft Frontpage formats.

Uploading Your Content Using FETCH-FTP

Now that you've signed up for your MyHome account, its time to upload your content. For uploading to your FTP site, Wave recommends using FETCH FTP client software (example shown below). There are many freeware and shareware products that you can find. Wave recommends going to Tucows.com for all your software needs.

Each FTP client works in a similar manner, so the example below will give you an insight for ALL others.

1) Start FETCH-FTP Client
2) In the Host: field, type "myftp.starstream.net"
3) In the User ID: field, type in your Starstream username.
4) In the Password: field, type in your FTP password.
5) Click the OK button.
6) You will now connect to the FTP server.

7) Your user directory will be listed on the left side of the screen.
8) Use the GET FILE button to highlight and save documents to your machine.

9) Use the PUT FILE button to upload files to your site. By clicking the PUT FILE button, you will be prompted with a dialog box with the contents of files on your local hard drive. Select the files you would like to upload, and choose OPEN. (shown below)

10) You will be prompted to name the file you want to upload. You may choose a name to name the file, or simply click the OK button to keep the existing name. (shown below)

12) To delete files from your web space, highlight the file in your directory, and hit the DELETE key located on your keyboard.
