    3. Double click the Firewall Policy for the "Ethernet" location.
    4. Select Rules on the left
    5. Click the "Add a new Blank Rule." button on the lower right side of the window.
    6. Select the Blank Rule made in the previous step and move it to the top of the rule list.
    7. Double click Action and select Allow.
    8. Double click Adapter and select Wireless.
    9. Leave "Application", "Host", "Service" and "Time" as Any.
