The folders and files where listed and I could send and pull files no problem, and I did not need to disconnect from ethernet. I had set already set a password using the Sandisk app but the connection just ignored this fact and just connected. So instead of using FTP protocol I tried WebDav. The flash drive uses a simple server so using its IP address I then tried to connect to it via my FTP program (Transmit). And then to be able to upload or download files on the Mac over WiFi and not have to plug the drive into a USB port. The goal was to not have to disconnect the ethernet and have the SanDisk URL only connect over WiFi. And the webpage that shows the files on the Disk is basic HTML which does not allow you to upload files. Turning off the Ethernet connection fixed this but it was not especially convenient. But I could not see my files and realised the page was being directed via my Ethernet connection across the Internet to a SandDisk page telling me the drive was not connected.

The address is served from the Flash Drive's WiFi network and in turn shows you the files on the drive. I tried to do this once I had connected to the drive's WiFi network and using a browser (as they suggest) to connect to the given URL. But what was not very clear was how to do this if you wanted to connect to the drive and upload or download files to and from your Mac wirelessly. You can either connect via USB on the Mac or connect using a WiFi network. Sandisk gives you an app that allows you to connect to the Flash Drive's WiFi and transfer files.
