Ad Hoc Wireless LAN
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 be 
configured to the same 
radio channel. An ad hoc 
wireless LAN can be used 
in a SOHO or temporary 
environment.
