Android does not recognize Ad-Hoc networks. Joikuspot creates an Ad-Hoc network.
If your tablet has bluetooth, then it will work just fine with a E71.

Ran into the same problem myself.
Perfectly good connection on my smartphone but it can't be used.

There is a fix for the Android to connect to an Ad-Hoc Connection. Please refer to this thread: http://www.androidtablets.net/forum...g/3569-adhoc-patch-android-wpasupplicant.html for more details.
