Using the Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter

Sep 25, 2015 0 Replies

Hi,



I've seen two GUI apps that use the Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter and one command file, all of which build a WiFi LAN through Internet Connection Sharing. ICS is not all that desirable because it creates a new subnet. A more useful approach would use network bridging and put every device on the same subnet.



What I propose is not accomplished easily, in my experience. I use network bridging and static IP assignments for Ethernet but I do not know how to do it with the MS Virtual WiFi Miniport Adapter. Can this be done? Has it been documented?



Cheers
