How do I talk to just my friend’s computer?
A computer-to-computer arrangement is called an ad-hoc wireless network. This
type of network is usually small and is often a one-time network, set up between
a few wireless computers to allow them to share files.
To set up this type of network, you need to talk with your friend and agree upon
the wireless networking settings to use, such as the SSID, network password key,
and security settings.
Will my wireless network and a 2.4-GHz telephone interfere with each other?
Yes, it is possible for a 2.4-GHz wireless telephone to interfere with the operation
of a wireless network, because they both operate in the same frequency band.
However, the possibility of interference is limited, because telephones typically
scan before choosing the channel to use. If you manually change the channel
on the phone while it is in use, you may cause a conflict and interrupt
communications on the network.
