Hi all, Is it possible to develop a wireless application between a handheld and laptop running in peer to peer ad-hoc mode? I have a Xircom Springboard (802.11b) connected to my handspring visor and a Xircom NIC (802.11b) connected to my laptop. I want to be able to send data back and forth between each other without the need for an access point or wired network.
Setting it up in Ad-hoc mode, I've given the handheld and laptop each own IP address and have been able to ping each other and do a wireless hotsync. However, when I try to develop my app using netlib, I run into the problem of there not being a DNS server available. Thus when a connection is trying to be made, no host can be looked up. If there isn't a dns server available in ad-hoc mode, how can a connection be made through netlib? Has anyone successfully developed an app that runs in ad-hoc mode? Thanks.
