How to test

  1. Open "Network Settings" dialog in Gnome.

Expected Results

  1. Hotspot properties should contain "Network Name" which is same as computer hostname, "Security type" and alphanumeric "Security key".

  3. You can disable and re-enable hotspot mode.

Optional

  1. Run "nm-connection-editor" for setup Hotspot properties like SSID, encryption, password, enabling IPv6, etc..
  2. Login to KDE, enable "Hotspot" connection and test it.
  3. You can disable and re-enable hotspot. Other devices should disconnect and reconnect properly.
