Important
In an AD-HOC network, the devices
communicate directly with each
other without passing through an
access point. The speed of
communication across the whole
AD-HOC radio network is as fast as
the weakest connection in the
network. The speed of
communication is also dependent on
spatial distance between transmitter
and receiver, as well as the number
of barriers, such as walls or ceilings.
