6.4 Ad-Hoc Network
Ad-hoc networks allow users to create a simple wireless network without the use of an access
point. There are several drawbacks when relying on ad-hoc networks for wireless networking.
Most notably ad-hoc networks are susceptible to network breakdown due to their decentralized
nature.
Please see Microsoft® XP help for further instructions about setting your system up as an ad-hoc
network.
