Ad-hoc setup with Ubuntu 9.10
Posted: Wed Dec 08, 2010 11:34 pm
Hi all,
I got some problem with the ad-hoc setup for my fit-pc2 with ubuntu 9.10
I used to have ubuntu 10.04 installed on my fit-pc2, and wireless did not work, so I switch it down to 9.04 and followed the instruction on the website. The infrastructure wireless seems working very good on my machine now. (connecting to internet)
But when I am trying to create a ad-hoc wireless network with multiple fit-pc2s, it doesn't work now:
1.) when I use another laptop to create a ad-hoc, and I use fit-pc2 to connect to it, the system keeps asking me for "Authentication required by wireless network".
2.) when I try to create a ad-hoc host on my fit-pc2, it ask me for the same thing!?
Basically, the fitpc2 can connect through my router to internet, but it can not create or connect to ad-hoc.
Is there some hardware issue or driver one? I saw some posts discussing about similar issues, but I am a bit confused there.
Chris
