    Hello MDL'ers,

    I set up a bridged network to allow a select few to access the internet through my laptop. The problem is, no iDevices are able to connect to the adhoc connection.

    Just to clarify how the connection is setup.
    I am connected to the internet via direct line connection. I setup a new adhoc connection through my wireless adapter and bridge the two connections, and broadcast the AdHoc using WPA2 as the security type..

    Other Windows Laptops connect successfully but any iphones or ipads are unable to connect.. Is this by design or do these devices not have the capability to connect to an adhoc? Thanks.
