wi-fi tethering problem

I am unable to use wi-fi tethering with 1.0.8.21

When I try to set it up through "Settings->Internet Sharing", the "WLAN-zone" button flashes but never stabilises, and I never see any sort of "jolla" network on other wifi devices.

When I try through the Tethering app from Jolla store, it reports "Error: Not supported".

I have also tried through the command line using the connman-test package, using: /usr/lib/connman-test/enable-tethering wifi <ssid> <password>

the output of which is:

Enabling wifi tethering
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/lib/connman/test/enable-tethering", line 46, in <module>
    sys.argv[1], sys.argv[2], sys.argv[3])
  File "/usr/lib/connman/test/enable-tethering", line 34, in technology_enable_tethering
    tech.SetProperty("Tethering", dbus.Boolean(1))
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/dbus/proxies.py", line 145, in __call__
    **keywords)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/dbus/connection.py", line 651, in call_blocking
    message, timeout)
dbus.exceptions.DBusException: net.connman.Error.NotSupported: Not supported

Bluetooth tethering works OK.

Can anyone help? Thanks.
