and try to install the very first version of connectify. I also had problems with the latter.

Answer 9

I suffered for a long time, I created an adhoc network, but sometimes I got BSOD. AP did not go to any. I think it's not an option for you, but because of this I switched to Linux. I just filled in 2 configs from the instructions and the card started an AP that has been working for 2 years so far. If anything I can help in setting up, but IMHO, under Windows 7, firewood does not allow this to be done normally. Perhaps there are patched ones to look for. Good luck.
