Wireless Solution For Your iPod - Setting Up an Ad Hoc Network
by Jack Xu
Personally, I own a Linksys wireless G router. However, it is defective and provides an intermittent wireless experience at best. Because of this, I rarely use it for any reason. When I got an Ipod Touch a year ago, I couldn't get wireless at home. After scouring the internet, I found a solution. The solution, something I've never heard of, was to make a wireless ad hoc network. In order to set one up though, you need a wireless adapter of some sort. If laptop, then chances are you already have an adapter. If your desktop doesn't have one, you're either out of luck or you could go to a store and purchase one. ( I've seen some for less than $10, so they're cheaper they're cheaper than buying a router.) Here's how to set up your own ad hoc network.
(Note: These instructions are based on Windows Vista. Steps to set up an ad hoc network for other operating systems may differ. Also, for this to work, make sure your wireless is turned on!) 1. Go to control panel. 2. In Classic View, go to Network and Sharing Center. 3. There, select "Set up a connection or network" on the left column. 4. Choose "Set up a wireless ad hoc (computer-to-computer) network". 5. Click Next. 6. Choose a network name. Select WEP for security type (IMPORTANT!). Make a five letter password. Check the "save network box". 7. Click Close and your done! This not only works for iPods, but for cell phones and other mobile devices as well. You can even have other laptops connected to you wireless ad hoc network. So there you have it - a solution to life without a router.
