I am using Ubuntu 22.04.1 LTS desktop. I want to share the ethernet connection via wifi hotspot on my laptop. After turning on the hotspot, I am not able to connect any device from the hotspot, it shows that the network is saved.


I tried setting the security of the hotspot to none using nm-connection-editor, but it hasn't worked. I changed the password using network manager but still when I turn on the hotspot, it asks to enter the password, or else it generates the password on its own (It automatically changes the setting in the network manager when I turn on the hotspot i.e. it automatically resets the setting in network manager). In the mobile it shows a plus sign over the lock in wifi (a have attached the screenshot of it). Please give me a solution.

What got things working for me was the disablement of Protected Management Frames
