sdm can easily create a hotspot, which I use from time to time. I hadn't tested it specifically on the Pi5, but did so recently, and found that it wasn't working on the Pi5. At all. But it works perfectly on the Pi4.
Sometimes the SSID shows up on my iPhone, sometimes it doesn't. When it does show up, I'm not able to connect to it either from my iPhone or Windows 11 laptop. Both OS report "Couldn't connect", and there's nothing in the hotspot system log indicating that there was even a connect attemp.
However, if I boot that same SD Card on a Pi4, it works perfectly. I can connect to it from either device (phone or laptop).
Here's some log from the Pi4 (which works), filtered on "wlan0|NetworkManager"And here's the log from the Pi5 (which doesn't work). Same filtering.Does anyone have a Hotspot actually working on a Pi5 with the 2024-11-19 release?
If you want to try it yourself, it's quick and easy. Here you go:

Here you go:
- Install sdm: curl -L https://raw.githubusercontent.com/gitbl ... mInstaller | bash
- Grab a fresh IMG (e.g., 2024-11-19-raspios-bookworm-arm64-lite.img)
- Run this script passing it the IMG file:Boot it in your Pi5 and then try to connect to the hotspot "MyPiNet" with password "password". It will likely fail. Shut it down and try it in a Pi4, it should work.
