Hello,

I have tried to connect my wireless printer to my pc with creating an ad-hoc netwrok through
my wireless adapter.
So the network has been created and the printer found it successfully, but could not connect to it.
I have decided to get rid of the network and create an other one.
Could anyone tell me how to delete this ad-hoc network?
I have tried to find all around in Networ and sharing centre, but it does not show up anywhere, except when I left click on the tray icon in the right corner on desktop.

So it is not under "manage wireless networks" or any of those menu on the left hand side of the network and sharing center window.
