Some wifi drivers are a little buggy and do not always merge two ad-hoc cells, therefore you're usually best advised to choose and configure one manually (i.e. 'iwconfig wlan0 ap 02:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX'). While configuring a cell-id manually, you should set the 7th bit of the first byte - or start it with "02:" in other words. To keep this id (mostly) unique, using one of the routers mac-address for the rest is usually the safest way to go. - +Check with '<code>iw dev wlan0 link</code>'.
