Tired of running around trying to find a wifi hotspot? Well so was I so I did research and well.. Watch the video.. Just follow the big mouse pointer and it'll work.. This works with vista (what I use) and I use this "ad hoc" wifi hot spot to get wifi on my ipod touch. now what I didn't show you is what you do to connect your ipod touch/iphone wifi to the laptop.. go to your itouch/iphone wifi and turn it on AFTER you've done everything on the laptop. It should find your network if your wifi is on and select the blue arrow that faces to the right, beside your network name. It will bring up a screen on your touch with three noticable buttons: DHCP BootP and Static. Select the Static button and in the IP address bar type: 192.168.0.2 Make sure it looks like that or it won't work.. go down to subnet and type 255.255.255.0 and the next bar will have 192.168.0.1 (router) and the DNS will be the same (192.168.0.1 If this is typed in, turn your ipod /phone wifi off and back on.. It should now recognize your computer network and connect.. Warning: I've only used ipod touch fimware 3.0.. Not sure if it works on anything else or not.. if it does, Sweet and lemme know for shits and giggles.. If not, still.. lemme know.. If you have anymore questions, hit me up.. You know where to find me.. Comment!! P.S. only works with laptops with wifi!

  • @ggjoe723 if you have a wifi signal already then why would you want to create it? I mean you can run wifi to your computer and adhoc if u want to, but once you connect with your iPod for example, you can't use internet on your computer.

  • @getyourhandsup916. Yea local area network (LAN) is run off an Ethernet cable. What you're looking for is an ad hockey feature. Now i don't have a windows 7 comp so I'm not familiar with the setup. Shouldn't be much different that. Vista

  • @hulkxv1 that's irrelevant to the video but yes she is.. I'm sorry, was irrelevant too big a word for your teenage brain to handle. Watch the video for the info presented

  • Hello Killthemood

    How can this be done on Windows 7 home edition.

    My internet protocole version 4 options -says- The combination of IP adress and subnet mask is invalid. All of the bits in the host adress are set to 0. Please enter a valid combination of IP adress and subnet mask.

    Please help.

    Thank you
