Hello Pat, So this means no way the Intel WiFiLink 5100 AGN will run in AP master mode, correct ? Note that it can run in Windows using program like Virtual Router, and I confirmed I was able to connect to my workstation wifi. Note also that it is not using Adhoc mode, it was using AP Infrastructure mode. Thanks for your confirmation.
