You have two portable computers that run Windows 7. The computers are not connected to a network.
The computers are configured as shown in the following table.
Computer name | Wireless adapter | Network adapter | Bluetooth adapter
————–+——————+—————–+——————-
Computer1 | Wireless b/g | 100/1000 Mbps | Version 2.0
Computer2 | Wireless a/b | 10/100 Mbps | Version 1.0
You need to transfer a 1- gigabit file from Computer1 to Computer2. What should you do first?
A.
On Computer1, create a wireless ad hoc network.
B.
On Computer2, configure the Bluetooth File Transfer Wizard to send files.
C.
On Computer2, create a network profile to connect to a network named Homegroup.
D.
On Computer1, configure the computer to be a member of a workgroup named Homegroup.
Explanation:
Wireless Ad Hoc network
You can set up a temporary wireless network, or ad hoc network, between two or more computers running Windows 7 (or between computers running Windows 7 and Windows Vista) provided they are all within 30 feet (9 meters) of each other. A WAP is not required to set up an ad hoc network. This enables users to share folders and other resources without needing to connect to an organizational network.
On the first computer on the network, you open Network And Sharing Center and click Set Up A New Connection Or Network. You then choose the option Set Up A Wireless Ad Hoc (Computer To Computer) Network. You give the network a name and (if you want) set up a security key so that users joining the network need to supply a password. For WEP, this can be 5 case-sensitive characters, 13 case-sensitive characters, 10 hexadecimal caseinsensitive characters, or 26 hexadecimal case-insensitive characters, depending on security considerations. (If you choose WPA-2 Personal, you can insist on a 64-character password, but by the time everyone has typed it in correctly, the meeting would probably be over.)
Bluetooth
Windows supports Bluetooth version 1.1 and later versions. Windows does not support Bluetooth version 1.0 because that specification lacks several critical updates that Windows requires to support Bluetooth wireless technology well.
