Revision history [back]

I use debian jessie on my laptop and use the jolla internet sharing. Often, the laptop disconnects, saying "network activation failed". According to the syslog it's tried three times to send auth to the mac address of the jolla. Switchin\ g off wlan on the computer, restarting the internet sharing on the phone, and restarting the computer wlan often gets me a connection. However, very often it drops agan, and quite frequently the phone suddenly reboots just after I've switched on internet sharing. This happens mostly (or maybe almost always) when I am travelling in public with many other devices in the vicinity which are also running access points. Is there some way of controlling the channel choice for the AP?

I have also noticed that sometimes the the status indicator goes on promptly when I switch on internet sharing on the phone, sometimes is flashes for quite a while before it goes on, and sometimes it flashes for quite a while and then goes off (and sometimes it flashes for a while and then the phone reboots). I'm not sure how to interpret this.
