How to interconnect an ad-hoc network with an infrastructure network


Hello,

I am in a laboratory and i have to interconnect an ad-hoc network with a infrastructure network (Ethernet).
But I don't know how can I do that. If you have information or know how to do that, please send me it.

PS: sorry for my bad english but I'm not english!

If you mean you have one computer on both a wired network and an ad-hoc wireless network, you'd need to set that computer up to perform either IP forwarding or Ethernet Bridging.

Please confirm my understanding is correct.
