Ad-hoc Wireless LAN (no AP or Bridge)
An ad-hoc wireless LAN consists of a group of computers, each
equipped with a wireless adapter, connected via radio signals as
an independent wireless LAN. Computers in a specific ad-hoc
wireless LAN must therefore be configured to the same radio
channel. An ad-hoc wireless LAN can be used for a branch office
or SOHO operation.
