How do I make my ipad discoverable by my PC to connect it to my home network?
Does anyone know how to make the ipad discoverable by a pc running Windows 7 to connect it to the home network?
iPad, iOS 7.0.1

That's not how you connect an iPad to a "home network." You connect the iPad to the WiFi router using the SSID and password for the router. You're trying to use Windows network setup, which, in addition to being one of the worst networking software ever invented, isn't how you add devices to a network.
You don't connect the iPad to the PC to connect to the it's network. You can not connect to the network created by your PC. You connect directly to your router or access point under:
Setings>Wi-Fi
Use the same credentials (password) you use when connecting any wireless device to the router.
