Hi there guys! I was tried create a wi-fi hotspot in my notebook. Well, first i tried use the network manager. So, the wifi hotspot was created but didn't work. Well, what can i do? I wish use my firefox os and create a wi-fi signal on trisquel. Someone can help me?

I'm not sure but i read something about ad-hoc. I don't know what this means. But i read in somewhere. So, create a wi-fi signal on network manager don't would work because don't is ad-hoc.

Well, that is all know.

Thanks for your time!

You should be able to set the IP address (under IPv4 setttings) to
"Shared to other computers" after creating an ad-hoc connection.

Install the 'dnsmasq' and retry what you have done with NetworkManager (this tip may be obsolete).

This might depend on the adapter. If I'm not mistaken this won't work with some wireless adapters. I believe it should work with pretty much all the Atheros adapters (PCIe 802.11n at least, and ar9170, and ath9k_htc USB based, ar9271/ar9280+ar7010), but not ones like RTL8187 (USB G adapter).
