Hi,

I have created hosted network using steps available on internet,

CMD to start hosted network:

netsh wlan set hostednetwork mode=allow ssid=nameOfwifiHotspot key=22334455
netsh wlan start hostednetwork

This was working fine till few days ago and after that my hosted network gets started but none of the client are able to connect

On hosted network status:

On my mobile or tab it just keep showing obtaining IP address.

Anyone who can help?

Hi,

In this case, I suggest to create a new hosted network and meanwhile update the adapter driver.

Also, try to renew the IP address with this command:ipconfig/release ,then ipconfig/renew.
