removing/disabling a wireless network

hi,

i set up a wireless home network to share and transfer files between my
desktop and laptop. now i am done and i no longer want to have such network
exist between my machines. is there a way to disable or completely remove
this network?

thanks

 

Sure, follow these steps to disable the ad hoc wireless network (assuming XP
SP2):

Double-click the wireless network connection icon in the system tray, click
'View Wireless Networks' then click 'Change Advanced Settings'. Under
'Preferred Networks' select the ad hoc network you setup previously and
click the remove button. Click the 'Advanced' and then select the 'Access
Point (Infrastructure)' radio button.

Ryan:
Does this actually remove the setup network?? As far as I can see the
network still exists you've just masked your ability to see it!!
