Direct Connections with Other WLAN Users
With a direct connection WLAN users can build a network quickly and directly (ad hoc) to
exchange data without an access point. An ad-hoc network of this nature is created by one
WLAN user; all other WLAN users can register at this network.

command “Create New Ad-hoc Network...”. The “Ad-hoc Network” window opens.
2. Assign a WLAN key.
3. Confi rm your settings by clicking “OK”.
Yellow waves in the FRITZ!WLAN control software indicate
that the ad-hoc network is ready.
4. Now an ad-hoc network with the network name “ad hoc” has been created.
How to Join an Ad-hoc Network
1. Click the FRITZ!WLAN icon in the notifi cation area of the taskbar and select the menu
command “Find”.
