Hi,

I am completely new to wireless networking, although I have had wired
networks under various OSes for some time now.

I am trying to connect 2 computers with D-Link DWL-650 cards in them. I am
planning a simple peer-to-peer network, so I selected

- 802.11 AdHoc on both for the main mode
- I created a SSID that is identical on both computers
- TX rate is set to full auto on both computers
- PS mode is enbled on both computers
- channel is set to "1" on both computers
- drivers, configuration utility are identical
- Encryption is disabled (no one around...)
- OS is WinXP pro

The computers simply don't get connected to each other...

I guess I configured all that could be configured, and the solution is
probably simple, but it just won't work.

Oh, and the computers a 6 feet from each other right now, as I am setting
them up in the same room.

Any help really appreciated !

Sorry if this is posted in english, risposte in italiano sone benvenute, les
r�ponses en fran�ais sont les bienvenues, und auch auf deutsch wenn's nichts
anderes funktioniert... Mutta mielummin suomeski, kiitos !
