I have that problem since I switched to Ubuntu 22.04. Cannot connect with any of my three different Android devices.
Now I downgraded my OS to Ubuntu 20.04 (for some other reason), which runs wpa_supplicant v2.9. I still cannot connect. I have another hotspot PC running, which works fine with Ubuntu 18.04. I would highly appreciate a fix, since being a hotspot is the main reason for this computer's existence. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to wpa in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1972790 Title: Can't connect to hotspot created on ubuntu Status in wpa package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: We currently have older systems (18.04) with hotspot's and we will migrate to 22.04. Anything work's fine, expect the hotspot. The Hotspot will be created and is visible in the WLAN-List, but if the security is set to "WPA & WPA2 Personal" we get the error message "Failed to connect to the network". If we change the Security to "WPA3 Personal" we get the error message "Invalid Password", even if the password is correct. As soon we remove the security (change it to "none"), we can connect with out any problems. We can reproduce it with a fresh installtion of the Ubuntu Server 22.04 and the following two commands: apt install network-manager nmcli c add type wifi ifname wlp3s0 con-name Hotspot autoconnect yes ssid test-ap 802-11-wireless.mode ap 802-11-wireless.band bg 802-11-wireless.mac-address "80:45:dd:f0:27:ba" wifi-sec.group ccmp wifi-sec.key-mgmt wpa-psk wifi-sec.pairwise ccmp wifi-sec.proto rsn wifi-sec.psk "test12345" ipv4.addresses 192.168.60.1/24 ipv4.method shared && nmcli connection up Hotspot We thought it could be similar to this issue: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wpa/+bug/1958267 Because if we test it with 20.04 it worked fine, because 20.04 uses the Version 2:2.9.0-21build1 as described in the Ticket. As @Sebastian Bacher suggested (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wpa/+bug/1958267/comments/58), i created a own report. In the attachment is the requested log file.
