When I was typing them in your way, nothing was working. Netsh wlan set profileparameter connectiontype=ibss connectionmode=manual ? Shouldn't your command netsh wlan set profileparameter connectiontype=ibss connectionmode=manual instead be: Shouldn't your command netsh wlan delete profile instead be (without ssid at all): Shouldn't your command netsh wlan connect instead be (where ssid is optional unless there is more than one ssid in the profile): I spent several hours struggling with this until I realized that your commands don't match what Windows 10 (or at least my version of Windows 10) is looking for. To remove the network profile from Windows, run the following command: > netsh wlan delete profile To disconnect from the adhoc network connect to a different network, turn off WiFi, or run the following command: > netsh wlan disconnect The name is also visible in 'Network and Sharing Center' window. Hovering over the WiFi icon in the system tray will show the name of the network you are currently connected to, even if it's an adhoc network (the network picker will not show it if it's adhoc). Replace with the SSID of your wireless network. Run the following command.В Replace with the SSID of your network for all following commands: > netsh wlan set profileparameter connectiontype=ibssДЇor Windows 10, the command is: > netsh wlan set profileparameter connectiontype=ibss connectionmode=manualДЄfter setting up, run the following command whenever you want to connect: > netsh wlan connect

Uncheck 'Start this connection automatically' (important).

Configure security settings accordingly.

Enter the SSID of the adhoc network (as shown by 'netsh wlan show networks') into the 'Network name' field.

Double click 'Manually connect to a wireless network'.

Click 'Set up a new connection or network'.

The following must be done once for each network:

If this occurs the wireless driver on your PC does not support ad-hoc and unfortunately that machine cannot be used for provisioning ad-hoc devices.

UPDATE - We have received several reports of users receiving an 'ibss type not valid' error running this script. UPDATE - We have created a script called AdhocConnect.exeto automate this process.

However, if this is not the case, a workaround procedure is described below to allow manual connection to Adhoc networks, using the Windows command shell.ДЄlso any iOS device ( iPhone, iPad, iPod), or Mac OS X device can connect to ad-hoc networks and can be used to perform the configuration of the Global CachГ© device. Some WiFi adapter manufacturers provide their own wireless management software with support for Adhoc networks. This is a problem when using Windows 8.1 or Windows 10 to perform initial setup/provisioning of iTach WiFi or iTach Flex WiFi devices. Windows 10 behavior is slightly different, as it does detect and display available Adhoc networks, but when attempting to connect, it fails with a 'Cannot Connect to Network' error.

As a result, Windows 8.1 does not detect or display Adhoc networks in the list of available wireless networks (also known as the 'wireless network picker').

Starting with Windows 8.1, Microsoft reduced support for Adhoc Wifi networks.
