Although I do not ususally recommend Ad Hoc mode, you should be able to do what you are asking without any trouble... &nbsp;As long as you set it up identical to the other systems, you should be fine..<br />
<br />
A little more on wireless networking..<br />

Hey. I currently have three computers two of which are on a wireless ad-hoc network. All of my computers are running windows xp home. I get internet access from my broadband computer downstairs and successfully share a printer and files, all to one of the upstairs computers. The only equipment I use is two wireless network adapters. one on each computer. what I want to know is whether I can buy another adapter for the third computer and join the wirless network I currently have, or would I need to buy extra networking equipment?<br />

Connecting three computers on ad-hoc?

Networking is the process of connecting computing devices, peripherals and terminals together through a system that uses wiring, cabling or radio waves that enable their users to communicate, share information and interact over distances. Often associated are issues regarding operating systems, hardware and equipment, cloud and virtual networking, protocols, architecture, storage and management.
