@Rambo - naaahhh the key was a random thing added messing around with this. I changed it anyways just incase.
Yeah I can see the ad-hoc network and also the laptop does snag ip addresses and get full connection but cannot get on the Internet. Also I disabled the WEP altogether and again it grabs an ip but no Internet.

I find it interesting that you have extras-devel enabled on your device as routine (I enable it on mine only when I wish to test something from there and disable it afterwards, extras-testing I keep enabled all the time...). Of course some people do, nothing wrong with that since you're ready to reflash whenever needed.
Joiku might not work with the custom kernel but I see no reason why it would conflict by just being installed on the system.
From what I can tell Joikuspot doesn't work with the new kernel. At least, it didn't work for me. Thanks again.

Does anyone know how to snoop an interface? Is tcpdump the equivalent in Lunix land? If we can see packets coming in the wifi interface then at least we could know if its NAT issue or something like that, vs. connectivity.

How are you sure your laptop gets a correct IP? What is the IP it gets, and what are gateway and subnetmask?

in more recent versions I have build the kernel module for it.
if necessary, "modprobe JoikuSpot_Bouncer" as root should load it.

I tried the command to re-load the old kernel and then everything went downhill. No idea why. Phone so unbearably slow it was unusable.

I re-flashed again with everything the same except I didn't restore the custom kernel and now it works fine with Joiku. There may have been other dependencies but that was what fixed it for me.

Ok sorry about the delay was headed home from work and thank you all thus far.
@ hcm: Yes I can ping the n900 from my laptop. Windows 7 shows IPv4 and IPv6 no internet access and no network access. It also shows the speed connected to the mobile hotspot on the n900 as 11mbps.
I assume (i know I know) that it is correct as it is in the range that the n900 is issuing when I watch how the backend loads. The ip is 10.176.159.12 and the subnet mask is 255.255.255.0.
It is obtaining an ip address from the n900 still and shows the gateway, dns and dhcp server as the n900. I have tried this from 2 laptops with the same result one running windows xp and my m11x running windows 7.

Testing to continue...
EDIT: ok, I got WEP to work. I first changed my key to have non-hex characters ("dog"), but it filled it to be "dog00". So I tried "doggy", and it worked fine. It seems that there is an issue if you use hex-only characters, perhaps.
