Hi Yogesh:

If you want to set your WLAN using Access Point then you can not setup
it as ADHOC, you need to set it up in INFRASTRUCTURE mode.

To set up the wireless connection.
-----------------------------------

1. Set up your access point ( must specify ESSID, BSSID, channel and
Preamble ).
2. Set up your wireless adapter ( must specify ESSID, BSSID, channel and
Preamble similar to your access point )

IP configuration
---------------------------

1. Set up your access point with IP, subnet, mask suitable to your
network ( AP is normally connected to network )
2. Now the WLAN adapter ( connected to your PC ) can be of different
type
   a. USB
   b. PCMCIA
   c. ETHERNET/ONBOARD ETHERNET
  Set the ip address of the WLAN adapter similar to NIC using
wconfig/ifconfig.

Your PC should be connected to WLAN now.

Regards,

/Mahesh
