I know this has been asked before, but I can't find a solution. I want to
set up an ad-hoc wireless network on my online PC so I can share its wired Internet connection. The set up proceeds for a while, then I get an error message "Windows could not set up name of network". I've tried different security details, I get the same message. Note that I am trying to set up the network on the "first" PC, I have not got to the point where I try to connect to it with a second PC. -- Nigel M If my question is about apples, please don't suggest bananas |
