The initial Q I have is whether any of your products can operate as an adhoc wifi client (for a Nokia phone, with internet access, running
Joikuspot and generating an adhoc wifi network) and provide the internet connectivity on the other side as either ethernet or
infrastructure wifi, for an android tablet (android supports only infrastructure wifi, or ethernet, as the only means of getting an
internet connection).

It is a Samsung tablet and Samsung have removed bluetooth tethering...

The tablet can get internet via ethernet and looking at the WR702 manual, both the AP mode and the Client mode ought to do the job - so long as the device supports *adhoc* wifi.

OK, I have just tested it.

The WR702 finds the Joikuspot wifi, offers the Connect button, but doesn't connect to it (as evidenced by the JS connection status list).

I tried it in the Client mode. The other modes are no good for this.

A piece of rubbish! And with zero support. I chucked it in the dustbin.
