I have the TS-7553, running Linux, with the ASUS wireless USB adaptor. I want 
to have this thing create an ad-hoc network so I can walk up to it with my 
iphone/ipod, connect to it ad-hoc and interact with it. I assume this is 
doable. But I'm at a loss how to do it. I'm familiar with ifup/ifdown and 
tweaking /etc/network/interfaces for classic wired networks. I get that I'm 
supposed to do something with iwconfig to make all of this work. In fact, I was 
able to make it so that my phone saw the network name ESSID I set. Other than 
that, I'm kind of at a loss. Is there a high level picture/tutorial on what I 
do to make this work? All the googling I've done so far just turns up how to do 
it with some WYSIWYG kThing or gThing, nothing about how to do it from the 
command line/configuration level.

TIA for any pointers, whether they be instructions or "you really should read 
this page here..."
