May find that you have a cable connection but no wifi or because absent or because security policies outside personnel may not access it. But now it is customary to have a handheld or smartphone that once connected to a WiFi network express the best of their performances. How so?
You can turn a laptop into a Linux access point via a simple script:
#Creazione di un access point
wlanconfig ath0 destroy
wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode ap
iwconfig ath0 essid MIOAP channel 2 key 0123-4567-89
ifconfig ath0 up 192.111.1.1 netmask 255.255.255.0
echo “1″ > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward
iptables -t nat -A POSTROUTING -j MASQUERADE
sleep 10
#FINE
Obviously, you can customize the 'essid, channel and password.
Obviously I have not set a dhcp, then you need to configure your handheld ad hoc, so to be allocated directly to the 'ip, dns etc ... etc ...

Hello, I work with an EeePC or Acer Aspire One?
You could create a bridge between the wifi network and the eth?
Thanks for the info
I do run the script sull'eeepc but seeing the features of the Acer, I assume there are just problems, the script is a sequence of standard commands
What does this script is just a machine to create "bridge" where you connect with a PDA via WiFi to your PC and a routing on the Ethernet. An AP stark!
Beautiful! I was just thinking about eeePC Dreambox + + HD + USB connection with mobile phone via USB
Sorry if I take this opportunity ... that has brought the wifi network as configured on your eeepc?
Also, could you tell me how fast PCs communicate in a wireless network?
Thanks!
The wifi network has the maximum theoretical speed 54Mbit / s, if the connection is good and you are the only connected ... If you want to access the net there are tons of info.
eeepc with an iphone and I was connected to a 20 meters ... without anything in between, an open space.
Thanks for the info!
but how do you specify the key (WPA or WEP or other)? thanks
As it has done the script is the wep key ...
Honestly, I never bothered to use a wpa, at least not for an AP luck ...
hello i have a probem, I can not start your scrpt, I've probably done something wrong because I said
wlanconfig: ioctl: No such device
wlanconfig: ioctl: No such device

you help me? (I have a eeepc 900 with eeebuntu installed)
What should I give you the command iwconfig restiuisce
Why 'I think you're ussando of different drivers from my ...
Hello!
through the script!
a question: if I wanted to activate the dhcp so that those who connect to the internet via my PC does not have to set the ip static commands should I add?
thanks!
The operation is not as easy because you should install and configure the DHCP server!
My script is simply an aid "flying" in cases Cusi need a wifi connection
To what do you want, I suggest a little 'reading on dhcp server
Lovely. Great site.
oO unbelievable I found exactly what you want! a script that was running on eeepc with linux to create an access point in order to connect my phone xD
I was not clear, however, the settings you said ... so now I try the script and let you know
