Mobian 'HotSpot"
Hope you don't mind my tagging onto this thread.
I'm running bookworm unstable and am trying the hotspot for the first time. I have Google FI and I know the hotspotting works because I've used this SIM card in other phones. I've tried directly starting the hotspot and the hidden wifi network method describe here. My Ubuntu laptop connects to the hotspot, but it doesn't get an Internet connection (the wifi glyph has a "?" in it). I've looked at the syslog on my laptop and don't see anything glaringly bad, in my naive view. Nothing is logged in any of the files in /var/log in the phone.
Any ideas of what could be wrong? Does anyone have a similar setup?
Thank you.
BTW, is USB tethering supposed to work? I've tried that, and the phone may be getting to the same state. The network manager on my laptop shows the USB network connection, it has an IP address. I have it 8.8.8.8 for DNS, just in case. Turned off wifi on phone. No Internet connection. Maybe this is a problem in bookworm unstable?
