Wifi hotspot unable to create

i want to create my laptop as wifi hotspot as i m using ethernet connection but gets this message in cmd prompt " wireless local area network is powered down and doesn't support the requested operation"

Hi,
Have you enabled the sharing option for the WLAN card.
Type the following command in command prompt and check for Hosted Network Supported is Yes or No.
netsh wlan show drivers
Note:
If you have HP Support Assistant installed on the computer(The Blue Question Mark) then open it ==> Complete all pending Updates & Tuneups==> Restart and Check. It may solve your problem
Although I am an HP employee, I am speaking for myself and not for HP.

Unable to set the ip address for hosted network client after creating WIFI hotspot

Original Title: INTERNET CONNECTIVITY PROBLEM WITH MY LAPTOP WIFI HOTSPOT
HI all
I am able to use internet connection from my lap hotspot, when the internet source is Public or private wifi.
so I know the cmd window commands for hotspot and settings of client(sharing to hosted network client, assigning IP address etc.,)
but the problem I am facing is slight different
I am using my cdma wireless broadband datacard as my source internet connection(Reliance netconnect +)
when I try to create hotspot for this, as usual I am able to create the hotspot and able to share the internet to hostednework client.
but I am unable to set the ip address for hosted network client, if I try to set ip 192.169.137.1 and 255.255.255.0
as soon as I close the window, the ip address also disappears
when connect my android phone to that hotspot, it is able to connect but there is no internet connectivity.
when I check the hostednetwork client for packet transmission, both sent and received packet is happening., I mean transmitting
so what cause the failure in internet connectivity but success in hotspot connectivity?
check the screen shots...
can u help me..
its little complicated

Hi,
Please make sure the Ad hoc connection IP adress is at the same range with your local connection. In addition, how about recreate the ad hoc connection for test, please have a try.
If problem persists, please use Network troubleshooter in Action Center to fix this problem for test.

Unable to Create Wifi Hotspot after OS update

I have just updated the OS on my Q5 to 10.2.424. When I now try to create a WIFI Hotspot I get the message"Regulations in this country prohibit Mobile Hotspot usage." This is not true and how do I roll back to the previous OS to get this working again?

Apparently do do not know quite what a WiFi hotspot is. You don't create one on your computer you can access one if there is one in the vicinity of your computer. Read this for better understanding:

How can i use "phone relay" on a iPad mini over iPhone created wifi hotspot?

How can i use "phone relay" on a iPad mini over iPhone created wifi hotspot?
It works nicely over home wifi, but for example, i am sitting in my car, phone is in my pocket and I'm using the iPad, call comes in and i don't want to start digging for my phone.
Is there any way?
devices:
iPad mini cellular (no SIM card at the moment)
iPhone 5S
Thanks!

well yes, but it basically makes wifi for the other devices, it basically mimics wifi.
as i get from your answer, it is not possible?
it would be common sense to make it work this way also. directly from device to device. no bounce between WiFi router
Then again, common sense is not that common these days...

Is there any way to create a wifi hotspot for my macbook using my IPad?, Is there any way to create a wifi hotspot for my macbook using my IPad?

I am going to a lake cabin in Northern Minnesota for a week and need to get wifi for my Mac. Is there any way to create a wifi hotspot using my Ipad so that I have internet service for my laptop?

No, iPad can become a hot spot, but if you have an iPhone, it can tether if you have a data plan that incudes the tethering option. With AT&T for example, you can add tethering for $20 month or for $45/month, you receive tethering and 4GB of data per month. If you have the unlimited data plan from AT&T you'll unfortunately have to give it up if you want to tether. You can also go to almost any carrier and purchase a MiFi unit which may work for you. Whether iw will work in Northern Minnesota is something only your carrier could answer.

I created a wireless network with my Time Capsule but would like to connect this network to a WiFi Hotspot for Internet Access

I have created a Wirelss Network at home with the Time Capsule and would like to connect this network to the Internet.
I can't use LAN Cable to connect to it anything becasuse I usually use the WiFi that runs through my building.
Can I connect the Time Capsule to the WiFi hotspot somehow so that all computers on my network have Internet access and if so, what do I need?
I need this done because the computers can only be connected to either the WiFi network or to my Time Capsule Network at any given time.
Or is there a way to be connected to both networks simultaneously?
I have two PC's and two Macs.
Thank you for any support and I apologise for my ignorance. I am not too good with networking.
I have tried the silliest of things like connecting a router to the TC only to then realise that the TC had an inbuilt router.
I tried connecting a USB WiFI adapter to the USB Port on the TC but it doesnt detect it that way apparently.
Please help!

I have a kinda same problem @ https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3531642

Create WiFi Hotspot with Command Prompt?

I was trying to create WiFi Hotspot on my Windows 7-32bit running laptop using the command promt method after followinng the instructions from here >> http://www.techswatch.com/2014/11/create-wifi-hotspot-windows-87-command-prompt.html However, the problem is, after creating the hostpot, when I enter the password it does get connected but I cannot access the internet. I am sure that I have entered the correct password else it wouldn't have got connected. Any idea what could have gone wrong or if I need to follow anything else? Any help would be apprecited.

I think it is better to use Wi-Fi creator to create WiFi in laptop. Search 160 WiFi in Google!

Hi ihtisham301,
Thank you for visiting Sony Community!
Try to connect any different device to your home network. If other device can't connect then you may contact your Internet Service Provided (ISP) for further assistance.
If other device can connect, then try to isolate the issue. You mentioned you cannot connect to the network but you were able to enter the credentials before connecting to the network. Try to ping any website, Start -> search cmd -> once in command prompt, enter ping googe.com and hit Enter. Check the Ping statistics. Try to ping your router as well. ping [router IP address] then hit Enter. Also boot the laptop in Safe Mode with Networking -> turn off the laptop, press the power button and immediately, tap the F8 key repeatedly. Once in Advanced Boot Options, select Safe Mode with Networking.
I'm not quite sure about the process that you did. I never tried that before. And another thing is, it seems that you are using a non-U.S. model of Vaio. We usually have Windows 7-64bit computer. We have limited information with non-U.S. model of laptops.
For further assistance regarding your concern, please contact the Sony offices/Sony representative offices nearest to your place of residence in Asia Pacific region http://www.sony-asia.com/countryselector.html?hpid=countryselector:AsiaPacific. Due to proximity, they are in a better position to respond to your questions or concerns.
Hope my suggestions help.
Thanks,

My macbook pro will only occasionally create a WiFi hotspot

I have created a WiFi hotspot on my Macbook Pro. Sometimes it will work perfectly but other times it refuses to create one even if I turn internet sharing on. Any ideas why this is the case?

Some liquid has just spilled into your Mac. What should you do?
Do
Immediately shut down the computer and unplug the power cord.
Remove the computer's battery if it's a portable Mac.
Disconnect any peripherals (printers, iPods, scanners, cameras, etc.)
Lay the computer upside down on paper towels to get as much liquid as possible to drip out.
Note what was spilled on your Mac.
Bring the computer into an Apple store or AASP as soon as possible.
Don't
Don't try to turn it back on. Liquids can help electrical current move about the components of your Mac in destructive ways.
Don't shake the computer (this will only spread the liquid around).
Don't use a hair dryer on it (even at a low setting a hair dryer will damage sensitive components).

I have an iPhone 4 and am in Nepal. My phone was previously able to connect to wifi, but now is unable. I have an iPad and that is able to connect just fine. This problem is with every wifi hotspot I have tried so it is the phone not the modem.

How do i creat a wifi hotspot from my iPad 4

My iPad 4 does not give me the option to creat a wifi hotspot, and theres no wifi tethering option aswell ! it is LTE enabled and my cellular data is enabled what can I do to fix this ? please if anyone can help ?

Does your carrier support the personal hotspot function (some only support it on iPhones), and are you on the correct tariff with them ? If they do and you are then you should have a Settings > General > Cellular > Personal Hotspot option

My wife has an iPhone with an Appleaddress and password. I now have an iPad and am unable to sign in using her Apple ID. I am also unable to create a Free Apple ID as our email address (Apple ID) is being used by her. Any thoughts - Thanks Colin

My wife has an iPhone with an Apple address and password. I now have an iPad and am unable to obtain an Apple ID. I have tried using her's and am unable to create a Free Apple ID as our email address (Apple ID) is being used by her. Any thoughts - Thanks Colin.
PS Hope ths explains it

Why can't you use her ID? My wife, my daughter and I all use my Apple ID.
Go to Settings>Store>Apple ID and try to sign in there with her ID. Make sure that you are entering all of the information (password) correctly.
If you really want to create a new Apple ID - use your own email address, but I would recommend using only one ID anyway.
