I tested against your statement. When shutting down the mobile AP, the client running PCP will not connect to any other wifi net nor will it reconnect to the mobile AP when it comes back online. I waited a couple of minutes for it to reconnect but it's not.

HÂ…:confused: I shut down the mobile AP unintentionally before shutting down the client. Then I fired up the AP again to shut down the client and wasn't able to connect to the client. I suppose it must have connected to the next available, low priority net if it is like you say. Then it is

Hi Jesperlykke , Hi Greg, not trying to steal the thread; But what about multiple WiFi nics? Would it be possible to use 2 or more WiFi nics to setup a Wireless AP regardless of the connection to a wifi network? This might help me too with my portable PCP4 boombox. Regards M-H Pi based
