I have created an ad hoc wireless network between my PC and laptop. My laptop has built-in WiFi, and I plug in a TP-Link USB wireless adapter into my PC. I can connect to my dial-up internet connection from my PC, then I connect my laptop to the ad hoc and I can go online wirelessly on my laptop.
But when it comes to playing multi player games, the computers recognise each other in the in the games GUI, but after about 10 seconds of game play on multi player, it disconnects. It has done this on The Lord Of The Rings - Battle For Middle-Earth, and Minecraft. So it doesn't work with any games. Why does it keep disconnecting? What can I try to fix it? Do I need a router, will that help?
Thanks.
