We are developing wireless ad hoc communication applications on windows mobile 6 devices using 802.11 in ad hoc mode. We are using HP iPAQ 910 devices and OpenNETCF smart device framework 2.3 for development.
As a design constraint, each device is represented as an SSID. If two devices want to communicate with each other, initiator switches to other device's SSID and broadcasts UDP messages. However this switching takes 4-5 seconds to complete and spending this much time might be undesirable in some cases. We were wondering whether there is a better and faster way in which two devices can communicate, something for which we can avoid switching SSIDs?
Please let us know if any more information is required. Thanks in advance for your help!
