Can I connect wireless LAN adapters running in Ad Hoc mode to a wired LAN?

Generally no. WLAN clients running in Ad Hoc mode communicate with each other and not with Access Points or wireless routers.

However, there is a trick you can use if one of your LAN’s computers is running WinXP or other operating system that allows bridging network adapters. See this How To for more info.
