Leyton Orient striker Scott McGleish grabbed the winner as he returned to former club Wycombe.
The 35-year-old headed in substitute Adrian Patulea's cross in the 77th minute for the winner.
Orient keeper Jamie Jones had saved well from and Chris Zebroski, while Matt Harrold and Michael Duberry had headed off target for the home side.
Harrold had an 85th minute header cleared off the line by Ben Chorley but the visitors held on.
Leyton Orient manager Geraint Williams told BBC London 94.9:
"Scotty's been great, that's why I brought him to the club last year, for his non stop effort, his energy and he's scoring goals still.
"The only reason we didn't have chances in the first half as in the second was that we played the same kind of football but when we played the final ball through it went through to their keeper and I thought he swept up very well.
"Second half we got in two or three times with some absolutely gilt edged chances and all of a sudden Ade puts a fantastic cross in and Scotty finishes with his head."
