Defy & Ad-Hoc wifi network

I cant connect to ad-hoc wifi network, it is well known software android problem at all devices but i tried like this links:
exop.pro/blog/2010/08/15/ad-hoc-support-for-android
szym.net/2010/12/adhoc-wifi-in-android/
when i replace wpa_supplicant, wifi seems doesnt work, i cant find any wifi network (ap or ad-hoc)
please help
I tried creating ad hoc wifi network in my laptop for my defy but failed. The phone did not detect the network. Then I installed connectify instead and it works faultlessly.
Is there any adhoc patch for defy?
*wrong post deleted*
I can connect defy with my laptop without installing any other software. But I'm not sure if it is a ad-hoc network. My laptop wifi driver provide a special ap mode and it can be used to share network.

Same here. I tried all the patches of wpa_supplicant given in this thread as well: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=755254 but the wifi just can't search for any network and it turns off itself.
Another member "webvan" tried the above steps on his Milestone and failed(from the above thread).
Seems like Moto has a different hardware config.
FYI, I'm running 2.2.2 custom rom (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1037076)
What a tragedy.
It seems there's no such patch for Defy.
for me it worked with 3.4.2_177-005_NORDIC rom which i used for a very long time.
the problem is, you must manually connect to an ad-hoc network.
if you don't want to do that each time, you can install cyanogenmod by quarx and it will automatically connect to your saved ad-hoc network
Maybe you should try update to 2.2/2.3 based rom.
Fyi, i'm now at MIUI rom & got no problems with ad-hoc wifi network.
Dont forget to activate Internet Connection Sharing (for windows user), just to assure your device got IP Address automatically.
P.S Sorry for my bad english

[Q] Rom with working VPN (PPTP) support

As stated in the topic I'm looking for a rom with working (!!) VPN support.
I currently have cm7.0.3 installed and can't connect to my VPN via PPTP or OpenVPN. Actually that is not correct... The icon in the statusbar states that I'm connected but no data will get through. I.e. doing a 'ping google.com' from the terminal emulator gives me an 'unable to resolve ...' error. same with any url in the browser and so on (no data connection).
one additional detail: via pptp i have to use encrypted connection ...
thanks for your time reading

Problem connecting to WIFI Network at work

Hi all,
we've just installed a radius server at work which works with a certificate on the client side, I'm trying so hard to get my galaxy to connect to the network but I'm having no luck.
I've tried installing the certificate but I'm not 100% sure its installed.
The security for this network displays on my phone as WEP so when I try connect it asks for a password
On my computer I don't get prompted with any password it just automatically connects.
Anyone experienced the same issue and managed to fix this?
