You set up the ad-hoc network from your PC or Mac then the android device sees it as any other wifi connection. Nothing special required, I do it all the time.

3 different phones and 2 tablets all see the network but won't connect. I'm using 4.1.1 Jellybean. I did a search and this is a known problem. With a router in place it works fine, without the router it sees the Ad Hoc but won't connect.
Here ya go, http://mobile.pcadvisor.co.uk/how-to/google-android/3372947/connect-android-phone-ad-hoc-network/
I can pull up hundreds of these threads, it won't work unless you root the phone/tablet with a certain rom.

Try CONNECTIFY if you're using PC. Quickest solution for all my wifi connection needs.

Unfortunately I'm on a Mac. Thanks for the info though.

That's what I love about Windows. Things just work.
The six months I spent with a MacBook Pro was like having an arm missing!

So then it doesn't work for you either?? At least on the Mac side it doesnt and don't turn this into a Mac vs PC thing cause it's not. It's more like Google vs Ad Hoc...... come on Keith.
Like I said I'll just have to carry around a spare router which isn't that big of a deal......

Yeah I know, just the thought of buying an iPad gave me the shivers when I can spend 100 bucks on an Android tablet and do the same thing , lol!!
Posté Mon 22 Jul 13 @ 2:08 pm
Well I would never have another one. I bought the 64gb 3G one when it came out for £700 and just 2 years later it's rendered obsolete. No update to iOS and now I can't update apps or install many new ones as they require the latest OS.
99% of Android devices have unlocked bootloaders and custom roms available that avoid that situation.
Apple no more for me!

Might have found a solution for this little problem, I'll post here if it works as others may run into this as well.

Well I'm back, I didn't get the tablet rooted so I still can't use an Ad Hoc network BUT when I use my tablet as a mobile hotspot and connect the Mac to the tablet everything is a go!! Just have to manually type in the ip address but that s not a big deal. So there you go problem solved......

I have similar problems regarding the ad-hoc network.
If I set up a network with my iPhone my tablet connects immediatly but if I set up a network with my MacBook Air the Samsung Galaxy Note will neither find the network nor connect to it even though SSID is published and I manually add it to my network list.
Result: I added a wlan router :D

Try using your tablet as a hotspot and have your Mac connect to the tablet.
I was prepared to carry around an extra router but this way seems to be working well. I run some more test and report back.

I have all the files available, but I have stopped developing the project because I gave away the tablet to my nephew.
I will try to "finish" some parts of the code that I had left under development and upload it on the next week.
Thanks!
