Hi , there We have 2 laptops : hp DV8-1090 (win7 x64 ultimate & built in Intel(R) WiFi Link 5100 AGN wireless adapter 802.11a/b/g/n) and Toshiba Satellite A65-S1762 (win xp x86 sp3 & built in ATHEROS AR5004G wireless adapter 802.11a/b/g) I've set up Ad hoc wireless network (directly) between them , but it didn't work at 54 Mbps! and is limited to 11 Mbps ; ( however in practice , it works about 5.5 Mbps! ) plz see: http://www.megapic.ir/images/8qs4uqfmylyy1leb7vx6.png http://www.megapic.ir/images/0xvlxu7fm06cwpgprvb.png I've search my problem too much and ask it in the other network forums , but nobody hadn't any idea or solution Look , in 2005 , some said in this page they could solve that problem , but I didn't understand exactly how: http://labs.pcw.co.uk/2005/03/adhoc-wireless-.html now , my question is : How to set up a wireless network directly between these two laptop to support 54 Mbps or above? Thanks , advance just windows XP!

Hmm.... I've never played with ad-hoc wireless stuff.... But I can tell you that 11Mbps is the 802.11b speed limit, so make sure that the speed isn't being bumped down to b (11 Mbps) instead of g (54 Mbps).

OK , JoelbX ; But How? ; I need a detailed guide... just windows XP!

Guide? This is one of those 'you would have no clue what settings is doing this'. Reading your article, it sounds like ad-hoc is limited to 11 Mbps..Hmm. Not sure what to tell you.

Thank you ; maybe you're right I'll search more , because I think there is a solution!!! About two years ago I remember my nephew set up a network that had a very high speed. He said his laptop as an "access point" has been introduced. I should ask him.just windows XP!
