Attempting to create a hotspot fails with an error. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. On a device with both a wired and wifi network connection available, connect to the wired one 2. Toggle the WiFi switch to off 3. Click on the network applet and click Hotspot ALSO 1. On a device with only a wifi connection available, toggle the WiFi switch to off 2. Click on the network applet and click Hotspot OBSERVED RESULT Clicking on the hotspot icon produces a popup error in both cases "Failed to create hotspot tracey-hotspot Error - Connection 'tracey-hotspot' is not available on device wlp0s20f3 because device is not available" EXPECTED RESULT If it's not possible to create a hotspot due to not having any network connectivity or no free wireless adapter, the icon is inactive SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Solus 4.7 KDE Plasma Version: 6.3.80 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.14.0 Qt Version: 6.8.3 Kernel Version: 6.14.4-318.current (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland Processors: 16 × 11th Gen Intel® Core™ i7-11800H @ 2.30GHz Memory: 64 GiB of RAM (62.5 GiB usable) Graphics Processor 1: Intel® UHD Graphics Graphics Processor 2: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 3060 Laptop GPU 2428317 1 bug-janitor 2025-05-28 12:44:03 +0000 A possibly relevant merge request was started @ https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-nm/-/merge_requests/431 2430477 2 niccolo 2025-06-05 08:12:39 +0000 Git commit 032b7dc86092ebbc9b17e8e3a563437cf76376e9 by Niccolò Venerandi. Committed on 05/06/2025 at 08:12. Pushed by niccolove into branch 'master'. Show hotspot as unsupported when wifi is disabled Trying to activate hotspot after disabling wifi will generate an error; we then show it as unsupported when the toggle is disabled. This also disables hotspot on boot when there was no previous hotspot configured, and when wi-fi is disabled.
