Connecting two computers through WIFI

Hello.
Could anybody help me connect my two laptops through WIFI?
Each has a functional WIFI card (drivers loaded and OK, if I do
iwlist $INTERFACE scanning
on both computers, I see the nearby access point).
One has an atheros chpiset card, I configure it with
modprobe ath_pci
wlanconfig ath0 destroy
wlanconfig ath0 create wlandev wifi0 wlanmode adhoc
iwconfig ath0 rate 54M channel 10 essid "airforce-one" key "s:***" mode Ad-Hoc
ifconfig ath0 up 192.168.1.3
and the other (which has an intel chipset card) with
iwconfig wlan0 rate 54M channel 10 essid "airforce-one" key "s:***" mode Ad-Hoc
ifconfig ath0 up 192.168.1.4
When I try to ping one from the other, nothing happens (I get "Network
Unreachable" errors).
Any hint? Thanks!
