How to establishwireless Adhoc connection on your pc and laptop??

Here is the some idea for establishing a wireless connection..Now there is no need to put or buy any kind of router because if you have laptop than just follow the step and you would be free to access internate freely.Now we will make a wireless connection in three step by step.1.The first step will be to install an 802.11b(or any wireless card or USB adapter) wireless card in the main computer and configure it as a computer-to-computer (ad hoc) wireless connection.2.The second step will be to install a wireless card in a second computer.3.To complete the network and provide connectivity to the Internet, Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) will be enabled on the host.Configuring the Host ComputerAfter you install an 802.11b adapter on a computer, Windows XP will automatically detect the card, install drivers, and display an icon in the notification area. r cards to construct the ad hoc wireless network here. Although they have native, in-box support in Windows XP, these cards can be updated with even newer drivers and firmware through ). If the computer is in an environment where other wireless networks are in range, Windows should display a list of available networks automatically. However, if no wireless networks are in range, the wireless connection icon may display a red “X” and may not automatically open a View Wireless Networks window. To open this window, click the icon for the wireless connection.Do not select an available network at this time if any are displayed in the Available networks listing. If your computer previously connected to a preferred access point, remove all preferred access points. This will ensure that a connection is made only to the ad hoc network that you are trying to configure.Next, click the Advanced tab at the top of the window. Select Computer to computer (ad hoc) networks only and clear the Automatically connect to non-preferred networks box if it is selected. This setting, along with removing preferred networks, ensures connection to the ad hoc network only.Click the Wireless Networks tab again. Under Preferred Networks, click Add, as shown in Figure 1. In the Wireless Network Properties dialog box, specify a Network name (SSID). Use any name desired, but be sure to use it to configure all computers. Note that the network type is already marked as a computer-to-computer network and that this cannot be changed since it has already been specified that a connection should be made to only ad hoc networks.Wireless Equivalency Protocol (WEP) settings are not being configured at this time because it's easier to get an ad hoc wireless network running smoothly before attempting to configure WEP data encryption. The decision on whether or not to use WEP should be based on your environment. In most cases, for optimum protection and security, after your ad hoc network is running properly, you should return to Wireless Network Properties and specify WEP settings.After configuring the network name (SSID) in the Wireless Network Properties dialog box, the new ad hoc network will be displayed with a PC Card icon to designate that this is a computer-to-computer network.After installing PC Card in a second computer, the Wireless Networks tab displays a list of in-range wireless access points or ad hoc wireless networksSharing the ConnectionNow that a successful ad hoc wireless network has been created, we'll set up Internet Connection Sharing.1.Open Network Connections on the host computer. (Click Start, click Control Panel, click Switch to classic view, and then click Network Connections.2.Click the connection to be shared, and under Network Tasks, click Change settings of this connection.3.On the Advanced tab, select the Allow other network users to connect through this computer's Internet connection check box.4.If you are not using a third party firewall and have not already set up the Internet Connection Firewall (ICF), be sure to check the box enabling this feature.Finally, optionally enable the setting to let other users control or enable this connection.After completing ICS configuration, the Network Connection window on the host computer will display the original wired Ethernet connection and display the status as Shared as well as Enabled. The Network Connection window on the client computer will display the connection on the host as an Internet Gateway.The client computer(s) should now receive a private class, non-routable IP address in the 192.168.0.* address range via DHCP from the host computer and should have full Internet connectivity.Configuring WEPAs connectivity has now been established successfully, the next step is to return to Network Properties and configure WEP settings to ensure the best security possible for the ad hoc network.On the host computer, open the Wireless Network Properties dialog box and select the Data encryption (WEP enabled) check box. Consult the documentation provided by your wireless card manufacturer for the key format and key length.Use the highest level of encryption possible (key length) that is supported by your hardware and drivers. Agere's Orinoco Silver cards are used here, and only support 64-bit WEP (also known as 40 bits). Using the latest drivers and firmware, Windows XP actually automatically detects that this hardware only supports 64-bit encryption and will not allow setting the key to 128 bit. Be sure that if you use an ASCII network key that you pick random characters and letters that can't be easily guessed. The final step is to use the same key and encryption settings and configure the client computer(s). Note: for additional security, consider changing the key on a regular weekly basis
