Hallo,
I tried to configure a wlan card with ath5k on linux, but it is not possible to change the mode from "managed" to "ad-hoc". As I am not so familiar to linux, could you please answer a bit more in detail. Thanks a lot. >iwconfig wlan1 mode ad-hoc Error for wireless request "Set Mode" (8B06) : SET failed on device wlan1 ; Device or resource busy. the running kernel is 2.6.24-1-amd64.
