Comment 15 for bug 1337753

NM apparently has grown support for "ap" mode style hotspots. It should be possible to write the NM connection file with mode="ap" instead of mode="adhoc".

So, I took Antti's connection file and modified it to use mode="ap" instead of "adhoc". I don't get the same stack trace when trying to activate such a connection on mako, however it doesn't seem to work all that well. I initially saw the AP in the network list of my laptop ( trusty ), and an Android phone, however when I tried to connect via Android, it appeared the defined psk in Antti's connection file is too short for WPA-PSK ( the PSK needs to be 8 chars minimum ) so the Android connect button was never active.

Once I corrected this by adding a few trailing characters, I tried to connect with both OS X ( Invalid Password error ), and Android ( tries to connect, fails, no error displayed ).
