Hi everyone,

i created a hosted network on Windows 8 using below command

netsh wlan set hostednetwork ssid=basitg key=****** mode=allow

and started using below command

netsh wlan start hostednetwork

then i say my room mates to connect to this network and i noted that only one device can connect at a time. Then i use below command to view hosted network properties

netsh wlan show hosted network

this output as below;
-----------------------
Hosted network settings
-----------------------
    Mode                   : Allowed
    SSID name              : "basitg"
    Max number of clients  : 1
    Authentication         : WPA2-Personal
    Cipher                 : CCMP

Hosted network status
---------------------
    Status                 : Started
    BSSID                  : bc:77:37:3a:31:ae
    Radio type             : 802.11g
    Channel                : 11
    Number of clients      : 1
        8c:a9:82:7a:40:be        Authenticated

please note 'Max number of clients : 1' in above output, actually this is preventing more than one device to connect.
How can i change this to any number that i want, I need to connect 4-6 devices to my hosted network???

Bundle thanks advance.
