Anyway, you can connect two PCs when one of them runs in hostap and the other one in ad-hoc mode. This will set up one of them as AP: ifconfig_ath0="inet 12.23.34.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 ssid Andrey mode 11g mediaopt hostap" And one in adhoc: ifconfig_ath0="inet 12.23.34.1 netmask 255.255.255.0 ssid Andrey channel 6 mode 11g mediaopt adhoc" You can also run both atheros nics in ad-hoc mode and bridge their interfaces with wired nics. And you can set up your atheros access point as apbridge which will pass packets between wireless clients directly. You cannot connect two APs in hostap mode as they will never associate to one another.
