Internet connection of PB603 via WifiHotSpot on mobile phone

JayHage · 03-18-2011, 11:30 AM

Hi dears,
I'd like to use the JoikuSpot Premium to utilise my phone as a Wifi hotspot to be connected to Internet wherever I am.

Even it works fine with my laptop on MS Windows 7 I can't use it on PB603, unfortunately.
- To simplify it I have chosen "no encryption" on both PB603 and phone
- I can see the proper "network SSID" which I easily selected on PB603
- but the "connection test" fails saying "network error"
- and there are no errors shown in "error log" appart of the message:
- /sbin/ifconfig eth0 up
ifconfig: SI0CGIFFLAGS: no such device

Have somebody experienced such an issue and is able to give any hint?
It would be useful to utilise mobile phone internet wherever you are not having to jogling with simcards, wouldn't be?

It fails with both 2.0.4 and 2.0.5 firmware...

Regards, Jay

I have just moved this question to "Bugtracker" thread as it seems to be more appropriate there.
