I just installed cm-10.1-20130719-NIGHTLY on my 8gb Nexus 7 (wifi only)
I was told that this ROM had the ability to connect to ad-hoc but I am unable to see my ad-hoc network from the nexus 7. Can anyone help? I have read many threads but they are all a year old or older and nothing seems to be working...

apologies if this has been addressed, i'm trying to determine if there is a fix for the nexus 7 being able to connect to adhoc networks. i came across this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1787680&page=1 but it ends about a month ago with no real resolution. this is a major concern for me, i've already returned one phone because it would only transmit adhoc. i need to be able to tether my nexus 7 for work purposes and i'm stuck with my old optimus v unless there is a fix. thanks!
Dear all,
I have tried to use my HTC Diamond 2 phone as a wifi router but for some reason my Nexus 7 doesn't see the network at all. (my notebook sees it, and I can connect without any problem)
Do you have any idea what could be the problem?
Thank you
Okay, I have figured it out, that Nexus 7 (and maybe Android) doesn't allow ad-hoc wireless connections, I know a method to bypass this problem but it involves rooting, are there any other options?
Thanx
I have a Nexus 1 and am wondering if it is possible to tether by USB to the Nexus 7... I dont really like using the wifi hotspot as for some reason whenever I put security on it I can never connect to it and bluetooth just plain doesnt work.
So just wondering if any of you have tried it with other phones or if its just not possible.
Is there a way to enable the Nexus 7 16GB or 32GB (not 3G) to create a portable wifi hotspot?
I don't need internet connectivity, I just want several Nexus 7s to be able to connect to each other and share data.
I thought I'd find this in a custom distro such as CyanogenMod, (I'm convinced I saw it somewhere on the JDQ39 build), but now I can't even find discussion of it.
Here someone nearly manages it but runs into DHCP problems http://stackoverflow.com/questions/14917450/create-an-access-point-with-the-nexus-7 There is also this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2360631&page=4 but it doesn't seem solid yet, and reliability is my number one issue, (my network of Nexuses will be in schools in the middle of Ethiopian nowhere so remote tech support is my main priority).
Thanks for any comments or views

Hey Guys,
I know already about some threads about that, however, I'm searching for a possibility to be able to connect to a Ad-Hoc network.
I'm using a Google Nexus 4 with the current Android version (KitKat 4.4.2). Even though i can't see the Ad-Hoc network which i createt. (Laptop can see it)
I created the Ad-Hoc network with my jailbroke iPad (so please don't post the solutions with windows) I searched a few days now but don't know what is actually working.
- wpa_supplicant for nexus 4?
- any ROM supporting it? (with Kernel?)
- any App/Mod activating it?
Would be nice if somebody could say something about it.
Greetings.
