If you 'upgraded' from Windows 7 to Windows 8 or directly to Windows 8.1, you might have noticed that ad hoc Wi-Fi (computer-computer) connections are no longer available.

However, with Windows 7 itself, a substitute feature was introduced which is a better replacement for ad hoc wireless connections.
