How would one go about setting up a Wifi network up to use as a LAN? I recently got a new PC and I wanna play on a LAN network on Half-life with em’. Anybody know how to do this?
edit: nevermind i misread the post
You want to use a wi-fi network to play lan?
Just create a game and find the server on the LAN tab, at least that’s how i usually do with counter strike
Buy a wireless router… and a usb wifi adapter if the PC doesn’t have one.
Internet > Modem > Router > PCs/Laptops
I presume you have windows 7.
-Go to Network and Sharing Center
-Set up a new network for connection
-Scroll down
-Set up Ad-Hoc
-Name the network and put a password
-Join the network wirelessly from the other PC
-Enjoy
PS: Stay a bit close to each other; no setting IPs up needed (unless HL gives you an error)
