man iwconfig
mode Set the operating mode of the device, which depends on
the network topology. The mode can be Ad-Hoc (network
composed of only one cell and without Access Point), Managed
(node connects to a network composed of many Access Points,
with roaming), Master (the node is the synchronisation
master or acts as an Access Point), Repeater (the node
forwards packets between other wireless nodes), Secondary (the
node acts as a backup master/repeater), Monitor (the node is
not associated with any cell and passively monitor all packets on
the frequency) or Auto.
Example :
iwconfig eth0 mode Managed
iwconfig eth0 mode Ad-Hoc
