I think you may have to disable WEP key. You may also need to select static IP connection on the android device. On the Tab to select static IP you go to wifi connections, press the options button and then select advanced. Not sure if it is the same for all android devices but i assume it would be or at least something similar. When I did these two additional steps it works perfectly and is incredibly fast. In fact faster than using the N900 itself.
