I am looking to develop an iPhone application that will require point to point WiFi communications on an iPhone. I would like to use the WiFi interface and have the application stream between the phone and a WiFi Device. Does anyone have some experience with this? Is it even possible? I know there is a discovery application but I am looking for something a little more robust.
A:
As far as I know (as the SDK stands now), the only thing available is communication over the existing network connection. The SDK doesn't allow for setting up wireless network connections, or creating ad-hoc networks. I believe the only way to join or create wifi networks is through the settings app.

How to send NSOutputStream to the other end after having created the wifi network through the settings app?
