Mobilehotspot stopped working after last update(s)
 

Kind of a double post, but got a bit lost in the other wireless tethering thread...

But yes, as it says really, all was fine, then did an update of both the kernel and MHS and since then it has stopped working. The network sometimes shows up on the laptop but I can never actually connect...

Tried uninstalling and re installing both...

Someone mentioned copying a .ko file which i searched info on with not much success.. I didn't have to do anything special like that last time i installed mobile hotspot, i just can't figure it out.. tried to look for it on my fone but couldn't find a search tool on my fone...

Can anyone provide me step by step instructions, and maybe a copy of the required .ko file, or even tell me which .ko it is?

Any help would be greatly appreciated..

Is it that problem with not having a DHCP server?

Re: Mobilehotspot stopped working after last update(s)
 

Not sure, can you elaborate?

Have you fixed it yet? Mine worked like a charm untill i installed windows 7 on ma laptop now it won't connect? Bit gutted, don't wanna go back to xp for the sake of MHS but having it came in very handy for me.

Not sure if related, but my Joikuspot hasn't been working lately either. Was working flawlessly with my Windows 7 laptop, but now even though it connects there is never any traffic flowing. I don't want to blame CSSU but I can't think of anything else that has been installed recently?

Re: Mobilehotspot stopped working after last update(s)
 

I don't think its related but this should work for you...

sudo gainroot
modprobe JoikuSpot_Bouncer

Start joikuspot and it should work but you have to do this every time which is a ballache. Then when you close joikuspot....

sudo gainroot
modprobe -r JoikuSpot_Bouncer

Its a pain but it worked for me :)

Just got my N900 back from repair, reflashed to factory spec, did a backup and restored apps, and same deal...

Soooo who on here has mobile hotspot working fine, and what version of power kernal and MHS are you running?

Re: Mobilehotspot stopped working after last update(s)
 

You could use this script to build a WiFi hotspot: [HOWTO] N900 WiFi Hotspot (script version)

You still need to use the iptables, which is already installed with mobilehotspot.

Has anyone recieved a text message from T-mobile about adding a tethering plan to their account? Mobilehotspot was working for me then just stopped roughly after recieving said text message, don't know if they related, just thought I would make mention of it.

Hmmm the demo version of joikuspot was working fine on my n95 while my n900 was away..

Re: Mobilehotspot stopped working after last update(s)
 

Mine is working:

Linux Nokia-N900 2.6.28.10-power47, 0.3.5

I don't use encryption, I don't use CSSU, I only connect to it using Linux machines of one sort or another.

Re: Mobilehotspot stopped working after last update(s)
 

mobile hotspot 0.3.5 is not working for me as well.. Mine is kernel 47 and latest CSSU update.
It is not able to connect to the 3g network.. Please help?

Re: Mobilehotspot stopped working after last update(s)
 

Can someone please get this fixed.. request maintainer as well..
thanks

Okay, so on a factory fresh N900, I've installed MHS from application manager, which gives "Mobile Hotspot Failed to Start", as expected (not yet installed power kernel)

So I intall power kernel from application manager, and restart. Now MHS seems to work (Asks to select network, connects to network etc) but the network never appears on laptop. Same story even if I disable encryption.

Any ideas anyone?
