Currently have the android version of Lemur. Works fine over the wireless router based network. But can't get it to connect directly to a windows laptop in an ad hoc network. The configuration on the Windows laptop seems fine (since it connects with a Windows desktop OK).
So googled this and found that Android apparently doesn't support ad hoc networks.
So are there workarounds to this?

I couldn''t figure this out so bought an iPad and "went over to the dark side"
