No, the problem you describe is entirely due to the XO-1 using 802.11s
mesh and the XO-1.5 using 802.11g ad-hoc. The two methods are
incompatible and do not interoperate. This was always the case.
Sugar can be reconfigured on the XO-1 to add the 802.11g ad-hoc icons,
with consequent confusion for users. Becomes a question for sugar-devel@
Best is to use an access point.

Not understood, sorry.
