I have the same problem with "Michael Rainwater on January 9, 2008 @ 12:56 pm"

There was a message " at least .... not applied successfully..." after I changed the property and clicked the "OK" button.

I am the local admin, but it seems I don't have the right to change the wireless configuration. During the working time, I am using the domain user in the office environment, but at home, I would like to use wireless either.

Please help me on this point. Thanks in advance.

Here's one for ya...

WinXP Pro SP3, on board wifi card, Mobile Broadband card from Sprint(set to NDIS to emulate a wired LAN.

I want to know if there is a way, w/o having to add anymore hardware, to make my laptop a wifi hotspot using the Mobile Broadband Card instead of an Ethernet connection.

I followed the instructions above. But when I selected the last option "Computer-to-computer (ad hoc) networks only" and then click "OK" on the Wireless Network Connection Properties, I get the following error:

"At least one of your changes was not applied successfully to the wireless configuration"

I am admin on my laptop. Is there some registry setting (policy) that my IT department may have installed to keep this from working?

Thanks for the great guide.
