    Windows 10 as WiFi Hotspot not assigning IP addresses


    I haven't tried, but you could connect your PC to the internet by cable and create an ad hoc wireless connection between the PC and the other device to get internet. Right-click on the network icon and select Network and Sharing Center. Then click on Change adapter settings. This shows all your adapters and connections. Right-click on the Ethernet connection and select Properties, then click the Sharing tab. Check the box to Allow sharing the connection and select your wireless connection from the list. I am not sure if it will work with automatic settings though, you may have to manually assign an IP address to the wireless connection. Then manually assign an IP address at the other device and set the Default gateway to the IP address of the PC's wireless connection. Also you have to create a new ad hoc connection and connect to that from the other device. I don't currently have a Wi-Fi card, so I cannot see the steps to guide you.

    Assigning Static IP Address Range in a Router

    yep, pretty much all.

    for point #2 if you are having difficulty binding static IP in the router, it is ok to set static IP in the camera instead - just make sure you take a note on which IP is which camera so that you wouldnt put the wrong IP in the port forwarding.


    am not sure what you meant. you don't need ddns to access the camera locally (from inside your LAN) *Confused How to assign Multiple IP Addresses to a Network Adapter :confused:

    How to assign Multiple IP Addresses to a Network Adapter

    IP address assigned to non-existent adapter

    So I automatically received the Windows 10 anniversary update this afternoon (against both my will and my explicit no-update settings) on my work computer. When I logged back in, all of my network adapters except one had disappeared (I previously had a virtual switch set up via Hyper-V to allow emulated devices to have internet access).

    When I try to assign an IP address to the remaining NIC, I get this delightful message:

    It appears that the update unhelpfully uninstalled hyper-v manager, but did it in such a way that the ghosts of networks past still haunt me.

    When looking in the Device Manager, the listed adapter does not appear. Having device manager 'Show hidden devices' does not make it appear either (even if I run the 'set devmgr_show_nonpresent_devices=1' command).

    Ipconfig doens't list the device either.

    I thought maybe if I re-installed Hyper-V I'd be able to manage it from there, but having done that and rebooted, the adapter isn't there either.

    I tried removing it in Powershell via 'remove-vmswitch' but that failed saying it couldn't find such an adapter.

    How can I remove all traces of this apparently invisible adapter so that my NIC starts working properly again?
