Hello,

I have a problem to enable SoftAP mode on my device. I Have installed TL-WN722N_V1_111121 drivers and also actual version of controlling utility and when I turn it on than in settings there is option to turn on SoftAP mode but it is gray-inactive. It happens on my WinXP and also on my Vista. Can you please advise?

but is it possible at all, to use winxp for providing internet access to the tab ? maybe it's not realized in the tp-link utility itself, but if someone installs some other software, say, proxy server or virtual router (i've seen many such programs) it will work ?

If Windows XP doesn't support SoftAP what does this mean than?
(TL-WN722N specification table)

Advanced Functions: Soft AP (For Windows XP/ Vista)

Can someone at TP-Link clarify this...? Please?
Whether this model has indeed support for Soft AP in Windows XP or it really doesn't and the description table (pt-pt) has an error.
What we have to do to make that option active?

I don't have have exactly an error. The software just doesn't allow me to activate Soft AP in Windows XP (with SP 3, yes).
My screen is like the one that Sputnik posted.

Ok I understand now. You can't choose Soft AP Mode on or off is that correct?
