Can't connect ad hoc network to Windows 8.1 Pro

Monday, April 9, 2018

I'm trying to connect to my ad hoc network through the command prompt with the the following command:

netsh wlan show network

... I get the following output:

SSID 3 : Range
Network Type : Adhoc
Authentication : WPA2-Personal
Encryption : CCMP

I am trying to connect using this:

netsh wlan connect Range

But I'm getting this error message:

The network specified by Profile "Range" is not available to connect

How can I connect to my network using netsh wlan connect?
