JoikuSpot is installed and can be found under Installations folder in your device

You can move the application from this folder to any folder you like such as main folder by clicking “options move folder name”.

4) Click on the JoikuSpot icon and the application starts. You are prompted “Allow sharing your internet connection”, and by selecting “Yes” you turn your device into a WLAN HotSpot that shares your phones 3G internet connection to external devices. Visual illustration on device screen


“Allow sharing your internet connection with external devices” turns your device into a WLAN HotSpot

5) Choose the Internet connection that you want to share over

WLAN (e.g. your operators default internet access point). Please choose your 3G connection to share. Note that you are not able to share WLAN connection.



Choose your preferred internet connection from your network operator and activate the JoikuSpot. “JoikuSpot created successfully” indicates successful HotSpot creation that is visible via WLAN to external devices

6. JoikuSpot is now active and external devices can find it when scanning for open WLAN networks. External devices see your JoikuSpot as “JoikuSpot WLAN network”, and they can choose to connect to internet via it. Visual illustration on device screen

There are 2 views in the application that you can use: Status sheet in the application indicates the connection status and amount of through-traffic via your JoikuSpot. Clients sheet in the application indicates status of connection requests from external devices and whether the internet connection is successfully established with them.



4) Setting up security with Encryption + optional features JoikuSpot needs to be stopped before you can adjust settings. Click Options Stop. You can now set the name of your JoikuSpot network (JoikuSpot_yourname e.g.) You can also set the default internet connection; this will prevent future prompts when starting JoikuSpot. At the bottom you can set the Battery Threshold; this will shut down JoikuSpot when battery level is too low. Please select a level that will fit your needs. If you want, you can set the GPS Positioning ON or OFF. By setting it ON you can see your exact location on Google Maps at Landing page and you can perform location based searches from services nearby. Location based search requires that the phone has support for GPS and the signal is received from GPS satellite. Visual illustration on device screen

At last you can set the encryption on. This is not compulsory, but we suggest you to do it especially if you don’t have an unlimited data plan. The following settings are best: Encryption: WEP Open Encryption key type: ASCII Encryption key length: 128bit Encryption key: This is generated automatically. You can also change it; juts remember to set 13 characters. Write down your key, you will need it when setting up windows or your other wireless devices. The key must be exactly same in JoikuSpot and in your WLAN device. Please note: If you change the encryption settings later on in JoikuSpot, you will need the change the settings also in all your WLAN devices.



To Finish click Back and start your JoikuSpot by pressing Options Start.

5) Usage with laptops (Windows XP)

1) Open your laptop and make sure your WLAN is turned on. Choose WLAN networks (typically Windows WLAN icon is displayed in the lower hand right corner bar).

Your computer will discover the JoikuSpot WLAN access point. Click on the JoikuSpot network to connect.

If you have set up the encryption, you will be prompted for the key. Type it twice exactly. Windows will not ask it again. Please note: If you have previously used JoikuSpot without encryption, you will need to refresh the Wireless network list in Windows. This will allow you to see the JoikuSpot network with encryption on. Type in your passphrase when prompted. Visual illustration on device screen
