Once you have set it up (quite simple), you can activate it when you need and connect to your cell with any FTP client (i.e. FileZilla Client) or even with your web browser, by just typing "ftp://[Ipaddress of your device]:[Used TCP port] Just note that, when using a FTP server in your cell, you're not allowed to use Port 21, which is the standard for FTP protocol: this is due to a specific limitation introduced with Android 4 (thanks, Google :-/ ). Anyway, I find this way quite comfortable and quicker than transferring files over USB cable via MTP protocol.
