Hello everyone,
I host a media server that I like to share with a neighbor on a different network.
I would like to connect the Windows 10 machine containing the media like so:
Etthernet ---> internet connection (mine)
Wifi adapter ---> Local access only (neighbors)
I have tried the following options:
-set the WiFi connection up with a static IP on my neighbors WiFi, blank DNS. Unfortunately this does not work well at all.
-Set the metric value of the WiFi adapter higher and Ethernet lower, both using the UI and through Netsh. This doesnt even save the settings.
-Attempted to host a Ad-Hoc using Netsh Hosted network. unfortunately none of the WiFi network adapters I have laying around support this feature.
Not sure if this is even possible on Windows or any other OS.
But I'm hopeful to find someone who has an answer to this
