I have used ad-hoc. It's by far not the choice of choice, so to speak,
but it does work, after a fashion.

Let's go over a few things.

Any address 169.x.x.x means that the device asked DHCP for an address
and failed to obtain it. In an ad-hoc network it would be unusual for
DHCP to be operating, but, as someone pointed out, not entirely
impossible.

Because of the meaning of 169 addresses, an attempt to connect to a
169.x.x.x address is doomed to failure in most "normal" networks. So
that one was probably a no-starter.

What is the IP address for your PC?

What O/S are you running on your PC?

Can you wire the SB up to the computer, at least temporarily?

We need these answers before we can proceed to help you.
