Hello,

I am using connman-1.12 on my STB that runs linux kernel version 2.6.22.
In my kernel configuration i have enabled the following:

CONFIG_BRIDGE=m
CONFIG_BRIDGE_NETFILTER=y
CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK_ENABLED=m
CONFIG_NF_CONNTRACK=m
CONFIG_NF_NAT=m
CONFIG_NF_NAT_NEEDED=y
CONFIG_IP_NF_TARGET_MASQUERADE=m

I have iptables-1.4.12.2, wpa_supplicant-1.1 installed.

My wpa_supplicant config contains the following configuration (among other
things):
CONFIG_DRIVER_HOSTAP=y
CONFIG_DRIVER_WEXT=y
CONFIG_WPS=y
CONFIG_AP=y
CONFIG_BGSCAN_SIMPLE=y

The following modules are automatically loaded at boot:
bridge 70144 0 - Live 0xc014f000
llc 8864 1 bridge, Live 0xc0110000
nf_conntrack_ipv4 11488 0 - Live 0xc001d000
nf_conntrack 68816 1 nf_conntrack_ipv4, Live 0xc0123000
iptable_filter 3008 0 - Live 0xc001b000
ip_tables 14544 1 iptable_filter, Live 0xc0057000
x_tables 18448 1 ip_tables, Live 0xc0051000

I am using a rtl8192c wifi dongle for the wifi and works with the Wext
interface.

When i try to enable tethering in connman i get an error message saying
"wlan0 does not support AP mode".
Are there any additional requirements for getting hotspot feature working?
Do i need to install hostapd or something?
I would like to debug and get the hotspot feature enabled. But at the
moment, I am not sure how to.

Please find the connman and wpa_supplicant logs attached.

For the purpose of testing, i installed connman-1.12 on my ubuntu 12.10
laptop and tried creating a hotspot using the enable-tethering script. The
script indicates that it has enabled tethering on the wifi dongle. But when
i scan for wifi networks (on my mobile) i do not see the hotspot created.

Please advise.

Regards
~Sameer
