Hi,

Well probably i know the solution, modify wpa_supplicant.conf file, add an entry for the ad-hoc network created and you can then connect to it. But this is very static in nature. Tomorrow if am in a different place and need to connect to some different ad-hoc network i wont be able to do it without modifying the wpa file again.

I just found this link:

Android Ad-hoc support hack/wpa_supplicant - xda-developers

And according to it, it dynamically shows ad-hoc networks like any other access point prefixed with a *. But it's been tested on HTC devices, so i am a bit pessimistic about using it.

Experts here please if you can guide me further by going through with the article on xda.

I was under the impression that Android OS in general didn't support Ad Hoc connections.

I'd love to get it working, because my phone's wifi is an ad hoc connection and i can't use it at all with my tablet.
