• Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter missing (hostednetwork starts but cannot connect devices)

  I upgraded my Windows 7 to Windows 8 Pro and everything worked fine, I was able to host a wifi network using the command "netsh wlan. I have a htc x, it successfully connected to the wireless network on my laptop via the netsh tha.

  But earlier, I have no idea of what happened but no device (for example, my cellphone) is able to connect to the wifi/hostednetwork hosted on my laptop. He sees the connection, but still hung on authentication / "obtain an ip address" phase and sometimes loops around that. While this same cell phone is able to connect to wifi hosted on the laptop from my friend, via the same netsh command, also it connects fine to routers wireless etc.

  I noticed that in my network connections section, "Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter" has disappeared. I tried to run the command

  "netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode = command not allow."

  and then

  "command netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode = allow."

  but nothing is done, the virtual wifi adapter doesn't seem to be back. I've updated my drivers for wireless card that is "Intel Centrino Wireless - N 1030 BGN". But still no change, map of miniport does not return. Then I ran the cmd command "sfc/scannow", in the hope that maybe some file is corrupted and he could get fixed, but even after checking and restarting, it was still no effect on wifi.

  So, basically, that is what is happening, I run the command

  "netsh wlan set hostednetwork ssid = keyUsage htc = key command persist = mode abcdefgh = enable".

  and it will

  "Hosted network mode has been set to allow.
  The SSID of the network hosted has been changed successfully.
  The user key hosted network password has been changed successfully. »

  Then I run

  "netsh wlan start hostednetwork.

  and it will

  "The hosted network began.

  But in my network connections section, "Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter" does not appear, instead when the connection is started, "Microsoft hosted virtual network adapter" appears and disappears when the hostednetwork is stopped. But nevertheless, no device is able to connect to this hostednetwork, stuck on authentication / phase "obtain an ip address", as a DHCP server is missing or something.

  Kindly, help me out I searched on internet a solution for almost 2 days now, but nothing helped.

• How to contact Microsoft to ask whether there is an updated driver for "Microsoft Virtual WiFi MiniPort adapter"

  When I checked the driver on this issue, I found this is version 6.1.7600.16385, dated 21/06/2006.After do a search, he started to download a replacement driver, but as it was not signed I cancelled the download. Then advised to contact Microsoft, which gave the pilot current, to see if there is a subsequent update. My system is Windows 7 Home Premium Service Pack 1, 64-bit on a Toshiba laptop.

  I do not pretend that you are worrying.  This is just the beginning post of this thread 'read' other posts from other users who have problems caused by those "fake" like most people 'all in one' driver updating software.  These never really find good "signed" drivers because there are "hundreds" of sites that can "host" similar named driver packages.  These packages can be 'false' or completely "valid" but usually "never verified."   Microsoft "allows us" to use their software and they officially publish the signed drivers on the Windows Update site.

  As a general rule, always get the driver on the web site of the official "publishers' support.  Anywhere else, 'we' need to be 'worried' about 'integrity' of the person who posted the package update driver.

  Microsoft Virtual WiFi MiniPort Adapter is a driver that Microsoft seems to use so 'of interface' with wireless network adapters.  It allow windows 'WLan' system to manage wireless network connections.

• Microsoft virtual WiFI miniport adapter has adriver problem

  does anyone know how to fix Microsoft virtual WiFI miniport adapter has adriver problem

  Hello

  Control Panel - Device Manager:

  You can double-click it - tab drivers - DISABLE (that is if you do not use this feature).

  You may not have that unless you try to connect to other WiFi devices via your computer and
  many WiFi devices and their drivers do not correctly support the virtual pilot.

  Check with the manufacturer of system and/or support updated real manufacturer Sites and WiFi device drivers.
  (Which is also updating the driver virtual.) If no new drivers WiFi are available then re - install the present
  one.

  Control Panel - network - write down of the brand and the model of the Wifi - double click top - tab of the driver - write
  version - click the driver update (cannot do something that MS is far behind the pilots of certification). Then
  Right click on the Wifi device and UNINSTALL - Reboot - it will refresh the driver stack.

  Now in the system manufacturer (Dell, HP, Toshiba as examples) site (in a restaurant), peripheral
  Site of the manufacturer (Realtek, Intel, Nvidia, ATI, for example) and get their latest versions. (Look for
  BIOS, Chipset and software updates on the site of the manufacturer of the system here.)

  Download - SAVE - go to where you put them - right click - RUN AD ADMIN - REBOOT after
  each installation.

  Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.
  http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/HT/driverdlmfgr.htm

  Installation and update of drivers under Windows 7 (updated drivers manually using the methods
  below is preferred so that the latest drivers from the manufacturer of system and device manufacturers are
  found)
  http://www.SevenForums.com/tutorials/43216-installing-updating-drivers-7-a.html

  Download - SAVE - go where you put it - right click – RUN AS ADMIN.

  You can download several at once however restart after the installation of each of them.

  After watching the system manufacturer, you can check the manufacturer of the device an even newer version.
  (Those become your fonts of rescue system manufacturer).

  Repeat for network card (NIC) and is a good time to get the other updated drivers as
  Windows 7 like the updated drivers.

  ==================================================================

  More information on what WiFi devices a virtual: (as noted above, if the device or the driver is not
