Ad-Hoc WiFi Connection Issues

[club_pranay]

Hi Guys

I have a Windows 8 laptop. I have my iPad connected to my laptop as a midi controller for Traktor Pro 2 through the common wifi network (Example of what i am trying to accomplish: Dj.BatuhanZ - Apple iPad TouchOsc Traktor 2 Pro First Test - YouTube). During performances, I have to rely on the venue's Wifi network which creates a lot of latency delay. This is a huge problem for the controller. A dedicated wifi router would solve the problem but I will lose network connectivity on my PC.

I am trying to create an Ad-Hoc network using a usb wifi adapter in addition to the current wifi network.
I dont care about internet connection on my iPad. I remember creating the Ad-Hoc network on windows 7, but i cant seem to find my way through windows 8.

Here are the details of the adapters: Internet access wifi adapter is refered to ad "WiFi" and the USB adapter is referred to as "EDIMAX"

Thanks for your time
