@mathieu-tl Stock Android does not support ad hoc wlan. See here http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=82 (Second most stars of all issues there)
There are some custom roms like Cyanogenmod7 that support ad-hoc. And there are ways to replace wpa_supplicant manually with a version that supports ad hoc. I will try to test it with an ISO of earlier release of ubuntu and save some information. ** Bug watch added: code.google.com/p/android/issues #82 http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=82 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/905748 Title: Create WPA2 adhoc is Open, not encrypted Status in “linux” package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Status in “network-manager” package in Ubuntu: In Progress Bug description: When I create a new network with networkmanager, select wpa2 personal and enter a password, the network that gets created is actually Open. In the connection information on Ubuntu, the network ist shown as WPA2 secured, but I can connect with other devices without entering any key. The network is discovered on windows and on Android (CM7) as OPEN! Using ubuntu 11.10, network-manager 0.9.1.90-0ubuntu5.1 I couldn't find any reference to this behaviour on the net or in the bug tracker. bug 322902 seems similar Note: With standard Android, it's not possible to connect to an adhoc wifi. With cyanogenmod or other mods it's possible.
