Appendix C

Setting Up an AdHoc Network

The Game Point! supports AdHoc networks. This network type is

also known as a peer-to-peer network. Within an AdHoc network,

the Game Point! connects your gaming device directly to other

gaming devices that are using a Game Point!. The network does

not include a wireless access point or wireless router. To set up a

peer-to-peer or AdHoc gaming network, complete these steps:

Installing the Game Point!

Ethernet port on the computer.

Plug the included power cube into a “live” power strip or wall
