Please try static IP firstly if you can't get an available IP via DHCP, just run: #ifconfig ath0 ip up Different with ordinary infrastructure mode, there always exist compatibility porblems in adhoc mode, so, i need some detailed information, please return me the output by running: #/usr/X11/bin/scanpvi -v and tell me what kinds of wifi chip in your Nokia smartphone.
