[Bug 1537551] Re: official ubuntu docomentation that explains how to create wireless hot spot is not correct.

 

Yes, it doesn't work for me either. Although my old iPod touch was able
to connect to the wireless network, it just couldn't access internet. I
tried a few variations, after searching around on internet and the
community wiki, but couldn't make it work. My work was done on a 16.04
development LapTop.


** Changed in: ubuntu-docs (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Confirmed

** Description changed:

  I wanted to create wireless hotspot in Ubuntu 15.10 64bit and followed
  this official manual https://help.ubuntu.com/stable/ubuntu-help/net-
  wireless-adhoc.html. I followed every step but still wireless wasn't
  working.  Nothing happened, my Android 4.4 phone couldn't find the
  wireless network.
