The topics in this chapter are optional and only recommended for advanced users or Dewesoft staff.
8.1 Wireless Connection
This topic will show how to establish a wireless connection between an S-BOX running Windows 7 Professional and a
Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 running Android 4.x.
8.1.1 Prerequisites
We assume that the Windows 7 PC has DEWESoft® and the DEWESoft®-NET option installed.
Note: you do not need to activate the DEWESoft®-NET option in DEWESoft® (and thus you also don't need to buy a
valid license for the DEWESoft®-NET option) – in this example we just need the installation of the Ultra VNC server
(which is automatically done when the DEWESoft®-NET option is being installed).
HINT
The procedure is prepared and tested only for the Dewesoft S-BOX – it may not work on
other PC's:
It will only work on Windows 7 (e.g. Windows XP does not support Hosted WLAN)
User access control should be disabled
Not all WLAN drivers support Hosted WLAN
Detailed information about the Hosted Network feature of Windows 7 can be found here:

8.1.2 Hosted Network on Windows 7
The hosted network feature of Windows 7 creates a software-based wireless access point (AP) (sometimes referred to as
a SoftAP) that uses a designated virtual wireless adapter. This allows the Windows 7 PC to create a wireless network
that other devices can connect to.
We have prepared some scripts that will handle all the
setup work – you will find the scripts in the
Extras\LAN_HostedNetwork folder of your SIRIUS®
installation USB stick.
The folder contains 3 script files – you just need to start
the script ApplyHostedNetwork.bat as Administrator:
See Illustration 200: First, hold down the SHIFT key and
right-click the script ApplyHostedNetwork.bat. Then
select Run as administrator from the pop-up menu.
