@1971DESH. Try updating your wlan card drivers from the device manager, restart if needed and start the procedure again. Please let me know if you are still having the issue after the update.
o man u r great..i hav no words for thnkin u..really….aweswome description….
psp detecting signals but error=not supported..i guess coz of key….can u tell me how to change the password type which supports psp..thnks
@zeeshanaslam59 Unfortunately, it seems to be that PSP does not support WPA2… which is the protocol used by this feature.
According to the PSP online manual, PSP only supports WEP, WPA-PSK (TKIP) and WPA-PSK (AES).
sorry to bother u again..i got problem in other laptops that i cant find any virtual adapter after the first command..i tried manty times but cudnt detect any..what cud b the reason..it is working well on my acer..also worken on an Hp laptop..but in other Hp laptop got this problem..reply asap..thnks
@zeeshanaslam59 trying with computers of different brands I found that some need a manual refresh in the device manager. Some wouldn’t work until I restarted it. Check if the network card has the ad-hoc option or a something related to broadcasting. Update drivers. Check also the event log to see if there is any hint. And lastly, it can happen that the network card is simply not compatible.
Let me know if any of this was of any help.
You da man!
