Need help to create wifi network

Good day Ms. Curtis!

Based on my experience here are some steps that you can use to resolve your issue.

First step that you need to do Set up an ad hoc (computer-to-computer) network.

1. Click on START button(windows button) in your desktop.

2. Then,type in the search field "Set up adhoc network" and hit enter then follow the steps in the wizard.(Just type the name of your network and security type should be WPA2.

3. After you create the adhoc network set up.Please go to Network Sharing center.

• Make sure that you click on -Turn on internet sharing option and password sharing

4. To Share an Internet Connection, Right click on the connection that you want to share. Then click on Properties button,go to the Sharing tab and put a check mark on the checkbox that says Allow Other Network Computers To Connect Through This Computer’s Internet Connection. Don't forget to choose Wireless network Connection under Home Networking Connection and click OK.

5. Then you connect to the network that you created earlier after few seconds it will give you a prompt that the network is ready to use.

6. Check your other computer and connect to PC1's network and start sharing the internet 2 laptops.
