Forgive me, but is a smarthub a 3G hotspot type device from a mobile
carrier? In the event that it is, you should find out if the provider is
allowing for IKE traffic. Phase 1 errors point to the fact that there isn't
basic connectivity between both gateways attempting to setup the tunnel.

If you're setting it up behind the netscreen, and you can't configure the
smarthub to act in "bridge" mode, or IOW, it needs to terminate the IPSEC
tunnel, you can possibly have it sit behind the netscreen and you can
forward IKE through the netscreen to the smarthub in order to get that to
work. On the netscreen side, you would set the untrusted interface to
"route" mode.

Not knowing what the capabilities of the smarthub I'm not entirely clear
what other options you may have.

HTH,

Harry.
