Set the wireless configuration for the adapters to Ad-Hoc mode, set the
adapters to the same channel, and assign an IP address to each computer
on the Ad-Hoc network.
Install the D-Link DWL-G680 Wireless 108G Notebook Adaper into the
laptop computer. (See the Quick Installation Guide included with the
product.)
When assigning IP addresses to the computers on the network, please remember that
the IP address for each computer must be in the same IP address range as all the
computers in the network, and the subnet mask must be exactly the same for all the
computers in the network.
For example: If the first computer is assigned an IP address of 192.168.0.2 with a subnet
mask of 255.255.255.0, then the second computer can be assigned an IP address of
192.168.0.3 with a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0, etc.
IMPORTANT: If computers or other devices are assigned the same IP address, one
or more of the devices may not be visible on the network.
