Connecting In Ad-Hoc Mode - Roland M-300 Owner's Manual Addendum

Connecting in Ad-Hoc Mode

What is Ad-Hoc mode?
Ad-Hoc mode lets you connect the M-300 directly to an iPad without using a wireless LAN access point. This is a convenient way
to use the M-300 with an iPad if you are in a location where the wireless LAN access point you normally use is unavailable.

Wireless LAN
Limitation of Ad-Hoc Mode
The antenna in the Wireless USB adaptor is not as powerful as a typical LAN access point. Therefore using a LAN access point gives
the most robust connection.
The iPad connected in Ad-Hoc mode will be unable to communicate with the Internet or with another wireless device. However,
an iPad that has cellular capability will be able to connect to the Internet via the cellular connection.
Please be aware that if you use a cellular connection for Internet connectivity, you may incur costs depending on your rate plan.
