    Hi all, I want to disable ad-hoc mode in the above wireless adapter using the Intel PROSet/Wireless software but can't find the option to do so. I can disable if using windows to manage my connection but where did intel put the same option in their PROset software? FYI, I'm using M1210 and have the original Dell driver installed.

    Help.

    EDIT: Found the solution. The option to turn off ad-hoc is set to hidden by default. It can only be view using the administrator tool which I didn't install the first time. I've installed the admin tool and disable it from there.
