I am trying to connect my Microsoft Surface tablet to an ad-hoc network that I setup on my Windows-7 desktop machine. The Surface machine can see and connect to other hotspots, but it cannot see the ad-hoc network, whereas a second Windows-7 laptop sitting next to the Surface machine can see it.
What would cause the ad-hoc network to be visible to Windows 7 but not to Surface?
Additional data:
Windows-7 is on domain, but Surface is not.
