I'm running my desktop WiFi card in Ad-hoc mode, but for some curious reason my laptop only works well if set to Managed mode. It works sporadically if set to Ad-hoc mode. I'm puzzled by this; it doesn't really matter, as it seems to work perfectly in this way. But I'd be interested to know why. I should say that both the cards are Orinoco Gold (Classic), the one in the desktop being in a PCI-to-PCMCIA adaptor. I'm running FC-4. -- Timothy Murphy e-mail (<80k only): tim /at/ birdsnest.maths.tcd.ie tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland
