I have pi 'A' setup to be an adhoc network and using dhcp3-server.
/etc/network/interfaces
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet dhcp
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet static
address 10.10.1.1
netmask 255.255.255.0
wireless-channel 1
wireless-essid PiAdhoc
wireless-mode ad-hoc
My windows can connect to it without any problems but pi 'B' never seems to connect.
/etc/network/interfaces
auto lo
iface lo inet loopback
iface eth0 inet manual
auto wlan0
allow-hotplug wlan0
iface wlan0 inet dhcp
wireless-channel 1
wireless-essid PiAdhoc
I've tried lots of different configurations on pi 'B' but none seem to work, the network does show up in iwlist scan.
I also tried wpa_supplicant
network={
ssid="PiAdhoc"
proto=RSN
key_mgmt=NONE
}
Also ho do I secure the adhoc network?
wireless-mode ad-hoc
in your second Pi or is it a typo?
