Close the connection (properly - wait for it to display the summary), go to terminal, and as root redo the command (only the modprobe JoikuSpot_Bouncer one) then hit Share Internet.
It worked for me (not from the first try though)
Edit: oh and it works on the leaked firmware, someone tested it (not me - still on 1.1.1(.5)ish)
That would be ....

I have recently moved from joiuspot to mobilehotspot as joikuspot just didn't seem to work. I uninstalled it but for some reason the connection "joikuspot234qwef2" is still there... I dont wana have to reflash my phone but surely it can't be a good thing that my phone is constantly transmitting the ssid?
Have tried to search for help but alas no one seems to have the same problem

You other devices might remember having seen such Ad-Hoc network and thus retain the name in case you want to create Ad-Hoc network with same name on that device for whatever reason.

Thansk for the fast reply, basically whenever I turn the wifi on on my work laptop It says "connected to joikuspot connection" Ive just check another pc in the office one that has not been tathered to my phone and joikuspot as you say does not show up on a search, my laptop however does show it as a previous connection but if I connect to it I get given an ip address and can connect to a cennection that in essance isn't there.
As I type my laptop has aquired an ip address and says it's connected to joikuspot.
Edit: I just check the other pc, seems the wireless was turned off, on a refresh the joikuspot connection shows up

It can be a bit confusing though if the OS remembers ad-hoc connections it has sometime connected to (vs created), OSX for example doesn't do it (but if my N900 goes down while my macbook is connected to it, it will [as per spec] keep the ad-hoc network running on it's side [possibly losing the N900 DHCP assigned IP at some point).

Is there a reason why that when i tried to follow the steps to replace the modprobe file in xterminal, it says that permission is denied. I even tried it in with root enabled and I still don't have access.

Open x-term and type these commands:

- remove old fileCode:sudo gainroot
- copy a new from kernel's modulesCode:rm /home/opt/maemo/usr/share/applications/joikuspot/JoikuSpot_Bouncer.ko
That's it.Code:cp /lib/modules/current/JoikuSpot_Bouncer.ko /home/opt/maemo/usr/share/applications/joikuspot/
EDIT: You have to do this always when either kernel or JoikuSpot is updated to a newer version.
When ever Titan's kernel version is updated, then you have to replace JoikuSpot_Bouncer.ko to fix the problem.
Dmesg gives to me following response.
