c# copy/exists/delete/list, remote, power shell

i'm new in power shell
i need to do few operations using c# on remote machine:

i have only ip address of remote machine and port (not default 5985) to power shell connection; machine doesn't have public name and doestn't have 139,445 ports shared

i think a good idea to use File.Exists, File.Copy, ... so i tried to mount 

New-PsDrive -Root 80.240.xxx.xxx:yyyy -credential User -Name X -PSProvider filesystem

error: Корень диска "80.240.xxx.xxx:yyyy" не существует или не является папкой. (Root of disk "80.240.xxx.xxx:yyyy" doesnt exists or not a folder)

can somebody help me with an example?

thanks for help

Quoting from Get-Help New-PSDrive:

-Root <String>
Specifies the data store location to which a Windows PowerShell drive is mapped.

For example, specify a network share (such as \\Server01\Public), a local directory (such as C:\Program Files), or a registry key (such as HKLM:\Software\Microsoft).

The argument of the parameter -Root must have the form \\hostname\share or \\ip_address\share. No port specification with either hostname or IP address is allowed. The cmdlet requires access to port 445 on the remote host.

You probably need to set up a VPN between the two hosts, to make this work.
