Default Re: 802.11b

I am having a similar problem, but in my case I am using 2 iPAQs, P2P ad hoc mode. I am not using access points because I am using them outdoors.
I have also switched my settings to same channel, changed my connection to work settings. but cannot sync. Please help.

Will you explain this in your article.
I have switched my connection to 802.11b ad hoc on both devices, put them on the same channel, changed my connection to a work connection. I cannot sync.
If you are using WinXP on your laptop, use the bridging feature between your wired and wireless connection. Then add a local ad-hoc connection profile to your available connections for your wireless card. You may have to explicitly disconnect from your access point and connect to the peer to peer connection instead.
