You need a router to connect the computer and the two ez-b's in client mode. I have never tried a virtual router so have no idea if one would work for this.

I don't know what the availability in India is, but I got this router "TP-LINK TL-WR702N Wireless N Nano Router" for less that $20 US from Amazon for using when I travel with my Robots and it works great.

If you post a link to the virtual router you downloaded, I would be willing to experiment with it a bit and see if it is usable and you are having a, configuration problem vs it just not working.

I thought you could connect EZ-B(1) to EZ-B(0)'s wifi? I may be wrong but I'm sure I read a while back (before they were finished mind you so spec may have changed) that you could chain the EZ-Bs

Hi Rich, is it possible like that also? I'll try myself & get back to ya.

Oh, you could be right. Depends on the DHCP settings of the AP mode, whether hit will hand out multiple IPs. Need to give that a try.

1. put your laptop in adhoc mode

2. configure each EZB to connect to your laptop's network

I have virtually never used adhoc mode. Doesn't that require each device to have a static IP? Who is the DHCP server in an adhoc network?

(something else to try after work tonight...)

Alan

Adhoc mode gives your computer the responsibility of handing out IP Addresses.

For example, when we travel and stay at hotels that do not charge for Ethernet Internet and we share a room - I put my laptop in Adhoc mode so our phones and who ever i'm sharing the room with can also use the Ethernet internet.

This has been a feature of Windows since XP.

Cool deal... I knew you could do internet sharing, but never realized one of the computers would act as DHCP server. I do a lot of network stuff, but never had a need for adhoc networking before.

I'll need to play around with this.
