How to connect android phone to an ad-hoc network without softwares. This is a really cool method that doesnt require too much. Just a few DOS commands and you're done


I have posted the DOS commands in the order in which they were used.

1. netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=NAME key=PASSWORD


2. netsh wlan start hostednetwork


3. netsh wlan stop hostednetwork

NB: If you do not have the virtual wifi miniport adapter, please go ahead and and enter the first DOS command, sometimes the microsoft virtual miniport adapter comes after the command has being executed.
