Read on in the full article.

This is such a cool product.

I've recently purchased an iPod touch and together with my N95 this is perfect.

The programmer has informed me that the final version will include NAT to support other protocols like FTP, IMAP, VPN etc.

It will also include encryption

Getting error message 'certificate may not be valid or time /date on phone incorrect' the phone is OK ,the d/l is also 45kb, any ideas?

[kontraband]

unregistered this download is only ... urm, 48KB... the install is 100kb to the phone.


Peter, yeah, once there is further protocol support it'll be great. Quicker than BT PCSuite connection.

Cool product for connecting wifi only devices or multiple devices.

But for my laptop I will continue to use Nokia NSeries PC Suite, Onetouch Internet access with USB wired connection between Vista laptop and N95. Saves battery on N95, quicker and more secure.

yes, I agree jpwbamber . In its current beta stage, its a wifi/multimedia quick browse app. Hopefully though in the next incarnation it will offer the security etc etc, though its never going to help your battery life.

Doh..It's 2008 not 2007 working now

Has anyone tried to connect more than one device at the same time, like you would a home network router? It would be a lot more convenient to have this for occasional/back up use than one of those dedicated routers with the data card.

What a great invention! It works well on my E90. Now, if I only could get 3G coverage where I live, I would ditch my expensive ADSL subscription in a heart beat. Unfortunately, EDGE speed is way too slow when browsing on my Mac...

Dunno, ask kontraband, the author!!

Steve

imo it'd be more useful to allow a phone w/o wifi to use my phone's wifi connection via bluetooth, kind of like a pc can...

"to connect an iPhone/PSP/laptop in a hurry" - i have to disagree about the "PSP" part of this statement. I tried it with my PSP with no luck. The PSP just doesnt discover the JoikuSpot when scanning in ad-hoc mode. Similarly when trying infrastructure mode(which is to be expected anyway). Otherwise no problems with my Lenovo lap-top running Mandriva Linux.
Have anyone managed to connect a PSP through JoikuSpot? Oh, i have to say my PSP is CFW 3.71m33-4.

Marko Crnkovič, the theme is a vodafone standard theme on the N95 8GB... you can get it here

zlatko - will try get back to you with fw version of the PSP

Hi,
unfortunately, I can't get it to work on my E61 (Nokia update says I'm on the latest firmware). Anyone managed to run it on E61?
It's asking for the access point to use several times, seems to connect fine, but then disconnects again immediately. At no point do I see a Wifi AP...
Regards,
Duncan
