How to Create Wireless Ad Hoc Network in Windows 7:

How to Create Wireless
Ad Hoc Network in
Windows 7:
The first and foremost step in this
regard is to go to the search box of
the start menu and type “wireless”.
Once you have done that you
should see a list above and from
that select “Manage Wireless
Networks” .
A new window opens up. In this
window navigate to the “Add”
button and click on it.
After that click on the option
called “Create an ad hoc
network” .
Once finished you should see a
window appearing where you will
find a message telling you about Ad
Hoc network. In this window click
on “Next” .
The window that appears next
requires you to give a network
name, security type and the
security key. If you wish to use this
Ad Hoc network over and over
again then check the “Save
Network” option. The security type
will depend on what the wireless
adapter is capable of. In general
cases it is found that if you’re only
using it quickly with different types
of devices it’s easier to have no
security. On the other hand if you
are keeping it on for full-time use,
you’ll definitely want to use
security.
After completing with the above
just wait a while for the network to
be created.
You should receive a message that
the network has been created
successfully and is ready to use.
Your next job is to verify the Ad
Hoc network by clicking on the
wireless icon on the task bar. You
should see the name of the
network and alongside it a message
“Waiting for users”.
Now on the client computer when
you click on the wireless
connection icon you can see the
name of the network and also an
option “connect”. Click on the
option and connect to the network.
Then on the Host machine you will
see that the other computer is
connected to your Ad Hoc network.
Your Ad Hoc network has been
established and you are capable of
transferring and sharing files. But
if you want to share your internet
connection with other wireless
devices then go to the host’s
wireless adapter icon and right
click on it. Then go to “properties”
and subsequently to the “Sharing”
tab and select “ Allow other
network users to connect through
this computer’s Internet
connection“.
Clicking the “Settings” option you
can select the network services the
Client machine can access.
You’re done. Now you can share
documents and the Internet
connection between machines and
devices.
