First, hotspot was *not* supposed to have been enabled for mako in OTA6 due to this bug. See bug #1487157.
Re-verified using rc-proposed / #228 ): A hotspot can be created/started, it's not usable. It can be seen by other devices ( iPhone, Nexus5 ), but neither the device aren't able to properly authenticate to the hotspot: I also see the following kernel and wpa_supplicant errors on mako when a client attempts to associate. 15:18:19 kernel: [ 1010.424629] wlan: [1484:E :PE ] limProcessAssocReqFrame: 654: AP supports RSN enabled authentication 15:18:22 wpa_supplicant[1945]: handle_probe_req: send failed 15:18:23 wpa_supplicant[1945]: WPA: wpa_sm_step() called recursively 15:18:23 kernel: [ 1014.448283] wlan: [1945:E :HDD] hdd_softap_sta_deauth:(c1117f20, false) -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to network-manager in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1434591 Title: [mako] Cannot connect to a secure, shared "ap" hotspot Status in network-manager package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: $ system-image-cli -i current build number: 138 device name: mako channel: ubuntu-touch/devel-proposed alias: ubuntu-touch/vivid-proposed last update: 2015-03-17 15:04:46 version version: 138 version ubuntu: 20150317.1 version device: 20150210 version custom: 20150317.1 I have tried most types of security, but the spec [2] says for maximum compatibility, most of the options should be left blank. Blank settings failed on both a and bg bands. How to reproduce: 1. Create a secure hotspot (I am using this [1] script) 2. Confirm that the hotspot is active and appears secured for other devices What happens: Connecting to it fails. What should have happened: Connecting to it should not fail. Excerpt from syslog http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/10627959/ Insecure hotspots should work using this [3] script.
