Startet out with 4.something which almost worked in adhoc mode. Then I 
was told to upgrade as that should fix everything and the kitchen sink, 
so I went for 8.something, which was totally hopeless :}

So I went out and bought me an accesspoint and now use ndis on my 
laptop, which works excelent...
