How to setup ad hoc wireless network

Good morning

I am trying to setup an ad-hoc wireless network. I can use 3 laptops for this wireless network. I already setup the wireless network adapters and these cards "see" a network but I can not ping any of laptop and they do not appear in my Network neighborhood

Can someone tell me how to set up an ad-hoc wireless network? Why I can not ping the wireless cards of these laptops?

Thanks a lot in advance

Hi Jaraya,

If you are unable to ping the laptops in a wireless network, then make sure to have disabled the filrewall in all laptops. Also, check out the below site to learn more about adhoc wireless network:
