4. In the Start Ad Hoc field, choose the wireless standard (802.11a, 802.11b, or 802.11g) for your
Ad Hoc computer-to-computer network.
5. In the Channel field, Automatic should work.

The Wireless USB 2.0 Adapter automatically selects the highest connection speed.
Note: If you cannot connect, see “Removing the Software” in Chapter 1. For problems
with accessing network resources, the Windows Client and File and Print Sharing
software might not be installed and configured properly on your computers. See the
link to “Internet Networking and TCP/IP Addressing” in Appendix B.

Note: If there is interference from another nearby wireless device, use the Networks
tab page to see which channels are in use in your area. Then use a different
channel. For example, if your neighbors use channel 6 and the signal strength
is strong, then channels 4-8 would probably be poor choices for you.
