What are the problems you observe? It may be that the problems you observe are not due to the ad-hoc network, but due to something else as well. > What would be the maximum number of participants that an ad-hoc > network can reliably handle? There's no maximum that I know of. A well placed set of laptops that can hear each other, with no outside noise, can operate an ad-hoc network to a quite large size. One node will be the beacon. Once you place traffic on the network, things will slow down. Once the slow down is enough, certain applications may fail. > Can we impose a hard limit on the number of clients to prevent too > many XOs connecting to a single ad-hoc session? No, there is no control for that as far as I know. -- James Cameron http://quozl.linux.org.au/ _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
