I think ad-hoc should work. Your card is G-PHY, from that series I've
only 4318, but will try ad-hoc with it anyway.

What do you mean by cell number in "correct ESSID and some Cell number"?

What other devices are in your ad-hoc network? What wireless cards/drivers?

Does connecting to normal network works fine for you?

Did you try connecting without NetworkManager?
