Thread: HTC legend connection to a Nokia joikuspot failed

Hi

My friend has Nokia E5 and he installed Joikuspot Light which turns the phone to a 3G wifi hotspot.

Then I was able to connect my laptop to web using his phone as 3G wifi router.

I was able to connect iphone to web using his phone as 3G wifi router.

But when I tried to connect my HTC legend (its Wi-Fi is enabled),,,,,Android Version 2.2

HTC was not able to find the nokia’s SSID (although SSID's broadcast is enabled) even when I added that SSID manually HTC complains that it is not in the range.

My HTC was able to connect my home router wirelessly with no problem

Is this because of a compatibility issue ?

Thanks

I see that the Legend can only handle wireless protocols b and g. Could it be that the other phone is transmitting in 'n-only' format as this would effectively make the SSID invisible?
