[Patch Request] Connecting to ad-hoc wi-fi

rot · 12:13 PM

Hi,

as webOS is currently not capable of connecting to an ad-hoc wi-fi, would anybody be able to add this via a patch?

The hardware and linux basis can handle ad-hoc networks. It's just webOS not displaying these.
I checked that from the ssh-console, where I could see the ad-hoc network.

So maybe it would be more like stop webOS from filtering ad-hoc networks?

Anybody able to help?

Once this is done, I'll use only a veer and Touchpad exclusively with no need for an iPad or Xoom!!!

Need this too.

Given the recent surge in webOS touchpad users without 3g/4g access - this patch is more important than ever.

At present I can only use my tp at home, it would be great to be able to connect to my iphone on the go.

This is the only thing I need to completely replace my iPad 1.

There's gotta be a genius out there who can fix this. Its not a hardware limitation so you would think someone just has to find how it is blocked in the OS and change it. I wish I knew how to do this sort of thing.....

This is much needed.
