Can it turn win 7 into wireless access point?

August 30th, 2010 No comments
Hello Mike,
The program has not been fully tested on Win7. This program depends much on wifi card driver. So many people could not make it work on their machines.  Please run it on your Win 7 to find the answer. It does not work on my boot camp Windows of Macbook. But some customers got it work on Win7…
Thanks  and any issues, please contact me.
Best regards,

My laptop questions for wireless access point

August 30th, 2010 No comments
Hello Jayanta,
I am not  sure whether it can work in SP or not. When you click StartSharing and it failed, mostly because the driver does not support doing so…
Thanks.

>The WLAN card on my Thinkpad is (Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 3945ABG) and the WLAN card on my Toshiba is (Intel(R) Wireless WIFi link 5100).By the way both my thinkpad and toshiba laptops can easily get wireless internet via my HP desktop which is working on VISTA via ICS (without using Virtual Access Point). However I cannot make it work in SP, not even after your software. Is there a get around?

Cable DSL connection and IEEE 802.11g Wireless Card with Virtual Wireless AP.

August 28th, 2010 No comments
Hello Javier,
First, you must let your wifi card working.  Right click the  tray icon of the wireless connection in system tray and open the Wireless Network Connection window to make sure the connection is ready to use. If not, you’d better to find someone to help to install the wifi driver or something to make it working.
Then, try to use the software, click Start Sharing. If success, try next step, run it on the other computer and try to Connect to Virtual Access Point.

Do Microsoft updates affect the virtual access point?

August 28th, 2010 No comments
Hello Staci,
Since we know, Windows updates do not affect this program. So the problem may be from other issues.
Try these below
1. Make sure Windows Wireless Connection is working. You have turned the wifi switch on.
2. Remove Prefered networks from your computer Wireless Network Connection Properties.
3. On Wireless Network Connection Properties,  tick on the check box “Use Windows to configure my wireless networks settings”.
And use the program to try again.
Thanks.

Yes, exactly.

Not need. One license is enough.

Not need. You can use Mac Book or iPhone or any wifi-enabled devices to connect. Just find a signal named “Virtual Access Point” and connect  to it.
>
>4. Can I download a trial version of the software to try it out?
Yes, of course. The download link is http://www.virtual-ap.com/virtual-ap_setup.exe
