Has anyone succesfully connected a touch to a windows 7 ad hoc wireless network for internet access? I can't get it to work.
 
just play around with it. try different names for it and make sure you get the option to enable the internet connection. if not delete the networks you have created and start over. pm me if you need more help. i have done it before at hotels with no wifi but ethernet
 
Exactly, I am in a hotel now. I'll keep playing around but am starting to think it has to do with Win 7 RC. I had it prompt for the internet sharing too. I tried disabling the firewall also.
