Connecting in Ad-Hoc mode (Ad-Hoc Mode)
Here’s how to connect in Ad-Hoc mode.
What is Ad-Hoc mode?
Ad-Hoc mode lets you connect the TD-15/TD-11 directly to an
iPhone or other wireless device without using a wireless LAN
access point. This is a convenient way to use the TD-15/TD-11
with an iPhone or other wireless device if you’re in a location
where the wireless LAN access point you normally use is
unavailable, such as when you’re away from home.
