Vista cannot create a ad - hoc connection if not connected to a router

Summary

I am trying to create an ad - hoc between my iPhone and my VISTA laptop connection. It works as long as my laptop is connected to the router. If I disconnect I can not create the ad hoc network more (error message "Windows cannot setup ").

What I'm trying to accomplish

Get a wireless connection between my iphone and my VISTA laptop without a router or wireless access point. Basically, I use my iPhone as a webcam, connected to the laptop, where an application processes the data stream. I do it in different places, without internet access.

Detailed problem description

VISTA not connected to a network

1. open the network and sharing Center

2. click on "set up a connection or network.

3. click on "Configuration of the wireless ad-hoc (computer to computer).

4. click on "next".

5 network name 'ad - hoc test 1', type of security: no authentication (Open), click "next".

6. Windows returns : "Windows could not set up ad-hoc test 1.

If I repeat the same procedure with my laptop connected to the router (wired or wireless)... It works without any problem.

Any ideas what could be the problem and how to solve!

A big thank you and a happy new year 2011

Emanuel

Hello

The iPhone needs to be configured for Ad - Hoc with a different IP address like 192,168.1.6

Perhaps this page can provide better instructions on a different route.

  • Cannot create an ad hoc network on Windows Vista

    Hi all

    I tried to create an ad hoc network on my PC but as soon as I get a name and a password, Windows returns the message "Windows cannot create the network"XXXX" I've not really changed anything since yesterday when I was able to create another network without problem, except a failed restart (to manually turn off my PC because restart took too long).

  • Vista cannot create a network map

    the two 2 computers running Windows Vista Edition Home Premium.  Network and sharing screens put in place identical.  On my computer (from the network and sharing Center), I can click on view full map and it shows my network card.  On the computer of my wife (of the network and sharing Center) she can click on view full map and it rises "Windows cannot create a network adapter for the selected type of connection networl.  I might add that both computers are 'wired' internet/router.

    Any help?

    Hi Duane_TN,

    Are your computer and your computer wife have chipset or card network NVIDIA perchance? or a Linksys router by chance?  This is a post in the forum of Linksys, you might want to check in to see if it applies to your computers:

    Symptom: Windows Vista computers are not put on the Vista network map.

    Or well, you get the following message when you try to view the full network map:

    "Windows cannot create a network adapter for the type of connection chosen network."

    To check go to:
    PANEL-> CENTER NETWORK AND SHARING.
    SEE the FULL map (top-right)
    and find either:

    1. A Windows Vista-based computer is listed down under: "the following peripheral discovered may not be placed in the plan.

      or

    2. You get the message, "Windows cannot create a network adapter for the type of network connection.

    Possible cause:
    The offending computer has an NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller whose property "priority and VLAN" to "priority"active & VLAN.

    Solution:
    Set the property 'priority & VLAN"to"Priority and VLAN Disabled"as follows:
    Reach:
    START-> CONTROL PANEL-> ADMINISTRATION-> COMPUTER MANAGEMENT TOOLS

    In the resultant "computer management" window select:
    DEVICE MANAGER (left side).
    "NICs" (right).
    Expand "Network adapters" and see if it lists a NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller.
    Right click on 'NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller' and select 'properties '.

    In the resultant 'NVIDIA nForce Networking Controller Properties' window, select:
    "Advanced"(tab) ".
    Under the list of the 'properties', select 'priority & VLAN.
    for 'Value' assign ' priority and VLAN disabled.

    I can't run an Ad - hoc network.
    I ' ts not an option in my settings if I want to start a new network.

    So, if I type adhoc in my Start menu, I get 'een ad-hocnetwerk (computer naar) instellen"translated, from an ad hoc network.
    When I click it I get a message "of windows wordt niet uitgevoerd wireless service" Troubleshooting translated, the windows wireless service is not running.

    After that, it shows that there is no problem and redirects me here.

    If anyone knows why I can't start an Ad - hoc network?

    Hello

    First make sure that wireless or WLAN AutoConfig service active.
    To do this, connect to the computer as an administrator:

  • Cannot create the remote desktop connection in two different networks.

    Original title: Windows 7 PRO through internet Remote Desktop connection.

    Two windows 7 Machines Pro. They want to be able to connect to the main computer (Internet router) when they are away at their House on the other.

    It connects via DSL behind a router

    A modem connection cable Roadrunner

    The customer has upgraded to pro. Computers aren't workgroup and domain just PC. What would be the best way to have to allow them to connect to the router. I tried the port on the router, nothing helps.

    Hello

    Remote Desktop connection uses port 3389 in order to listen to the incoming connection.

    When done over the Internet, you will need to forward the port to the IP of the computer.

    Alas, a router can send a specific port only to a single computer.

    Since you have two computers, you must change the listening port for one of them to a different port number and transfer the new port to the IP Address of the computer.

    Let a computer uses the default port 3389.

    In the second computer, change the port to another port of your choice, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/306759/en-us

    Assign static IP to the computers (make sure that it is in the DHCP range).

    In the router open port 3389 to the IP address of the computer with the default setting.

    Open port you used for the second computer to its IP address.

    When you connect, if the connection is a connection by default, he would go to a single computer. When the connection is made with on the second track, he would go to the second computer.

    This page describes another remote program but it represents the principle more in detail,http://www.ezlan.net/vnc.html (towards the end of the page).

  • Cannot create a repository master/connection - connection to database error

    Hello peers - I installed Oracle Data Integrator 12cR1 (12.1.3.0.0) using FWM 12 c (WLS 12.1.3) and 12.1.0.2.0 Oracle database. Once finished, I used the RCU to create patterns of master repository and knit as you can see below the image using Service name plug-in (PDBORCL) rather than Service PEH (ORCL) unlike 11 g name.


    Therefore, the major problem I faced is that when creating a master in ODI repository, is not to find the pattern mentioned in the database and it is not as PDBORCL as the SID in the settings. See images below:

    My pictures installation and Configuration. As you can see, UCR has PDBORCL as the name of Service (pluggable database).

    So, using the same settings from the images above, I tried to create a master repository or a connection, but it does not create one. It throws the error repository is not available . Any help is appreciated.

  • Why other computers cannot connect to the internet with my ad - hoc connection?

    Hi all! Here's my situation.
    My friends router is dead and we are in the smack dab Middle no where with no transport and we want the internet.
    We have only an Ethernet however.

    Here's my situation.
    I want to create an ad - hoc network and share the internet connection using ICS. The problem is, when I secure my ad hoc network with WEP or WPA cannot connect to the network. The network is visible on the computers of my friends (mac and PC) and they put the password nothing is done.

    But here's the kicker, when I don't put no security on the network, everything works fine.

    How do I create an ad hoc ICS with security network and have not really work?
    Thank you guys!

    Hello

    Thanks for posting. If I understand correctly, you experience the problem with the connection of computers using the Ad - hoc network. Correct me if I'm wrong!

    Before I continue, I would like to collect some personal information on the issue.

    1. what security software is installed on your computer?

    2. share your protected password put on or off?

    The sharing tab is not available if you have only a WLAN card.

    Method 1:

    Follow the link below and set the ad hoc network.

    Set up a computer-to-computer (ad hoc) network

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/set-up-a-computer-to-computer-ad-hoc-network

    Set up a wireless network without router

    http://www.Microsoft.com/windowsxp/using/networking/setup/adhoc.mspx

    Method 2:

    After you follow the steps above to set up ICS on the host computer, make the following changes on other computers (but not on the host computer).

    (a) open Internet Options by clicking the Start button, clicking Control Panel, clicking network and Internet, and then clicking on Internet Options.

    (b) click on the connections tab, and then click never establish a connection.

    (c) click on LAN settings.

    (d) in the dialog box settings of the network Local (LAN), under automatic configuration, clear the check boxes automatically detect connection settings and use automatic configuration script .

    (e) under Proxy Server, clear the use a proxy server for your LAN check box, and then click on OK.

    If the password protection sharing is disabled, I suggest to turn on you or so try if this can help fix the problem.

    Method 3:

    Follow these steps and check if that helps.

    (a) click Start, type Control Panel in the search box, press ENTER.

    (b) click on network and sharing Center, click change advanced sharing settings in the left pane.

    (c) click on him to expand the network profile (type) that you want to turn sharing on or off for protected by Word.

    (d) select (dot), turn on password protected sharing.

  • I do do not have the possibility of creating an ad hoc wireless network in vista professional.

    I am trying to set up an ad-hoc connection, however I'll add a connection through the connection manager and the options for connection type are available with the exception of ad-hoc.   Is it possible to activate this in vista professional.  My options are currently in the box add a login section are only: Internet, point of access, manual connection, dial-up and VPN.

    Thank you

    Hi hkwinger,

    It seems as the hardware is not supported the feature.  Check the model of your wireless adapter and the router, go to the manufacturing site and check see if these models support the functionality of ad hoc network first.

  • HP pavilion d4790y windows Vista cannot connect to internet unless you use WEP wireless

    I have a HP Pavilion with Windows Vista 32 bit home premium d4790y.  I can connect to my ISP wireless router using the HP internal network adapter, but the connection between the router and the internet does not work unless I downgrade the router security to WEP.  If I connect to the router via a wired connection, I can connect to the internet without problem even with WPA2.  I did all the troubleshooting steps recommended as reset the router to check updated network adapter, uninstall/reinstall the network adapter driver, driver release and renew the ip configuration, etc.  Information?  Is there a newer driver that is not recognized during the update search process?

    Hello

    It is a hardware thing and the wireless card does not support this. Changing the wireless card can be the way to go.

  • Vista Home Premium - cannot create a system - error (0 x 81000101) Restore Point

    I found the thread ""Microsoft Answers > Forums Home > Windows Vista > Security and privacy > Vista Ultimate - can't Create System Restore Point - error 0x800423F "and tried to follow the instructions for a similar problem but unfortunately I knew no chance to solve."

    After picking up my operating system (and emotional stability) after some type of registry startup problem (I think by installing automatic updates of Windows or trying in vain to remove a beta version of Windows Live Essentials caused), I am now unable to create system restore points.

    Not sure if it is a side effect of my previous diagnosis reboot-a-thon, defragment my HARD drive, disk cleanup running, karma for wanting to change the unwanted services from "Automatic" to "Manual", the result of a record of the ugly or another random event.

    When I try to create a restore point, I get the Protection system pop-up dialog (which seems even to have its own sound): "the restore point could not be created for the following reason: the creation of a shadow copy has expired.". Try this operation again. (0 x 81000101) Please try again. »

    I kinda like the syntax of phrase yoda "Retry this operation" but worried that system restore does not work.

    Specifications:
    ~ IQ818A HP
    ~ Windows Vista Edition Home Premium
    ~ Service Pack 1
    ~ 4 GB OF RAM
    ~ 64-bit
    ~ Properties system has already show "HP (c :)) (System))" as being selected for "automatic restore points" with the "most recent restore point" being yesterday.
    ~ (C) a 331GB of free space and 123 GB of unused space
    ~ (D) is the "FACTORY_IMAGE" of (c) partition and was selected previously, but then I tried to deselected it.
    ~ "Volume Shadow Copy" has been classified as "Started" and "Automatic" in the Services; I changed it to manual.
    ~ "Virtual disk" is listed as "manual" in Services.
    ~ Is CPU utilization to 99% with svchost.exe taskmgr.exe 31% and 49%
    ~ avast! The antivirus is active
    ~ avast! Scanner shows no viruses or other problems
    ~ Spybot scan shows no virus or other problems

    I disabled later, restoration of the system, rebooted, enabled the restoration of the system, restarted and then tried to save a point of restoration but no luck, I received the same error (0 x 81000101) as before. I then typed "net stop vss ' disabled shadow copies of volume storage in Device Manager, rebooted and activated the system restore and then tried to «Create a system restore point...» "once again, but nothing helped.

    I even removed the SD card that housed my ReadyBoost, just in case where that was having some strange side effects.

    I then ran sfc/scannow and must "checks 100% complete." but has NOT gotten any other report (for example "Windows Resource Protection did not any violation of the integrity." as stated on another computer to test I ran the same command on). I followed the link http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833 and tried opening sfcdetails.txt but it was empty; Perhaps, the command still runs on my computer that seems to use a lot of CPU?

    After reading a bit more about the problem (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/826936 for Windows Server) and think about the recent very slow performance of some applications of system on my TouchSmart, I start to think that my previous tinkering with services caused something to load that should not or something not to load that should and therefore the computer does not have enough juice or is not properly configured to create a restore point. Do you think that this is the problem? Is there somewhere I can find a list of services by default OEM on the parameters (deferred), manual or automatic?

    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

    Thank you.

    Hi TouchSydney,

    After you disable and re-enable the system restore, you did a restart? This removed all your restore points?

    If this isn't the case, you might want to restore it to a date before all this happened, he probably still will give the error.  Disable and re-enable system restore to remove all restore points.  Restart and try to create restore points.

    You can also restore this way cleaning points:

    In addition, let the VSS service to automatic and change the Options on the tab recovery to restart the Service in case of failure.

    Hope this helps,
