    Wifi Ad-hoc connection is not working with Windwos Mobile 6.5

    Hi All,

    i am using Windows  mobile 6.5,i am trying to connect to my laptop using wifi adhoc connection but it is never successfull. I am using Dell Latitude D630 Laptop and Window Mobile 6.5 device.

     the settings of the Ad-hoc net work are :SSID name : Test87

                                                                IP & Subnet on the device :10.2.20.7 & 255.255.255.0

                                                                 IP & Subnet on the Laptop :10.2.20.9 & 255.255.255.0

                                                             Encryption :open , and no security.

    But if i try to connect through the infrastructuremode it is connecting without any issue. can any one see this issue ?

    Is this through the HTC Wifi sharing application or are your creating the ad hoc connection manually?

    What is your default gateway set as?

    For a single device I'd use the USB Internet Sharing feature. For a start it'll mean only using 3G as opposed to both WiFi and 3G which will mean much better battery life.

     Have you tried setting the default gateway on the laptop as the IP of the WM device?
