    <p>I disabled my <code>Microsoft Virtual WiFi Miniport</code> network adapter from <code>Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network Connections</code>. </p> <p>Just right clicked on the miniport nic and clicked disable, and its gone. Now how could I enable it? After disabling the nic, <code>netsh wlan start hostednetwork</code> is not working any more. The response is,</p> <p><code>The hosted network couldn't be started. The group or resource is not in the correct state to perform the requested operation.</code></p> <p>It was working flawlessly, before I disabled the adapter, Anyway, for reference here is the output of <code>netsh wlan show drivers,</code></p> <p><code>Interface name: Wi-Fi</code></p> <pre><code>Driver : Qualcomm Atheros AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter Vendor : Qualcomm Atheros Communications Inc.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
