Hi, Thanks John for the reply, as per your advice I searched about Wif Direct and came to know that it is actually somewhat Ad-hoc wireless operation. I want to use Linux based laptops as client to the Beaglebone black (acting as a wifi server running latest Ubuntu image). With respect to above scenario I have two questions: 1> Does wifi radio that is available in Laptop by default (running on Linux) can be configured to Ad-Hoc mode 2> Does the wifi-adapters listed here <http://elinux.org/Beagleboard:BeagleBoneBlack#WIFI_Adapters> can be configured as Ad-hoc on Beaglebone black.
I am a beginner so pls excuse if any unrelated question appears!
