No (at least i dont think so).

My adhoc network is runnig, i know this because i have set up a new one
(for the 1,000th time) and can connect my PDA to it in ad hoc mode with
no problems at all.

The SSID of the network is 'domevans' and this is what my PDA reports
it as too. But when i try to connect my SB3 using that SSID it fails to
connect.

Also (when the PDA is off) windows also reports my network as being
connected. Turning off the SB3 kills that connection. It's as if my SB3
and PC are connected, yet my SB3 does not realise it!

So, if i push left on the SB3 too the first menu i get these options -
'Set up networking', 'view current settings', 'connect to squeeze
network' *AND* i also have the option to 'connect to
169.254.158.108'???

I am not sure where that forth option came from. Until now i have only
had 3 options in that menu. I am sure i never entered that IP in for
slimserver, i dont know where the SB3 came up with it. I have done
IPconfig /all and that IP address does not come up - so is it wrong?
where did it come from?

Anyway, trying to connect to that IP also always fails.

I have also tried the IP adresses IPconfig comes up with, but none of
them work either

Where now? Right now, i would just LOVE to see the 'can't connect to
slimserver' message, but i cant even get that far!

Please please help. Anymore of this and i will end up in the funny
farm.
