Speaking of which, I will be bringing my XO to the next meeting. If you are present with yours we can see if they will link up and see what kinds of things that allows us to do. I am also interested in seeing if one of us out of range of the WAP can get Internet access by routing through the other in-range laptop.
There are references (http://www.nmrc.org/pub/advise/20060114.txt) to windows machines that will set themselves up as ad-hoc networks without even having the owner's permission. However, from Linux, I suspect you would have to configure it intentionally, especially since that laptop would basically have to be on two different networks, on the WAP and another to the ad-hoc network. It would be fun to try and get it to work, though. Dave -- KPLUG-List@kernel-panic.org http://www.kernel-panic.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/kplug-list
