WiFi AdHoc Setup Frustrations >.<
Hi guys, I really need help with this problem. I've spent a good part of a day trying to work out why it wont work but to no avail =\ and yes, i have read the guides at wifi.aximsite.com already...
Basically the x50v finds the pc adhoc connection and connects to it when i turn on wifi except it just totally dies and says no signal in less than a minute. the signal strength is excellent since im right next to it and I have been tearing my hear out trying to figure out why the signal keeps dropping even thuough the wifi card is still sending out beacon signals(light flashes constantly).... the wireless card on the pc is a MSI PC54G2 PCI wireless card... anyone here have experience with this card??
I have tried giving both my pc wifi card and x50v a static ip since for some reason dhcp isnt enabled and i have no idea where to get it enabled... pc = 192.168.0.1, x50v=192.168.0.2
in the less than 1 minute that it does establish a connection each time i can ping the x50v so i know it is connected. strangely enough, the axim still thinks im "connected" to the pc even when it says no signal and i have to manually turn off and on wifi on axim again to recognise the connection.
any help really appreciated
edit: just to add, both the pc wifi card and the axim has no probs connecting to a neighbour's wireless network so its not a hardware problem
