Re: No HotSpot on mako after OTA-8

 

Hi,

Thank you very much for the confirmation. I reviewed the referenced threads
and tested the suggested workaround (it worked).

Fortunately, for my use case usb tethering is what I actually wanted to use
(I thought it wasn't supported yet).

Hope the Hotspot issues are fixed soon, as it is probably critical for
other common use cases.

By the way, I would expect USB tethering and a Wifi Hotspot to be
controlled from the same common GUI as they share the same basic
functionality, just a different access method.

Best Regards,
Felipe.
