Im trying to share the internet connection from my laptop to use the internet on my Lumia 520 phone.
I've just setup an ad-hoc connection in Windows Vista, then turned on my Nokia Lumia 520, but when I go to the Wi-Fi option on my phone settings, the network doesn't appear on the list of Wi-Fi networks.
I even put my phone close to my laptop, but even then the network doesn't appear on the list of Wi-Fi networks. I know that my laptop's ad-hoc is functioning correctly because when I use a laptop which is in another room, the laptop connects to the ad-hoc network okay and can access the internet.
What could be the reason why another laptop can see and connect to the ad-hoc network, but my Lumia 520 phone doesn't?
