This might be an android os question more than a wifirouter question, but I can't find a clear answer anywhere, so trying here.

I have use the htc wifrouter program for a while now. It connects flawlessly on any windows laptop I try it with and works very well. I run a stock 6.5 Sprint ROM. Anyway, I tested an Archos 7 tablet (it has the not-so-latest version of android on it) and I can't get a connection using htc wifirouter. The A7 connects fine on my home wireless router but when trying to use htc wifirouter, the A7 "sees" the network, but says it is out of range, even if I put the two about 6 inches apart. I'm sure it has to do with the adhoc connection that the htc wifirouter puts out, but I don't see any way to reconfigure the network connection on the android A7 unit. Does anyone know anything about android and whether this can be done?
Thanks much!
