i am on ubuntu 24.10, not only me , my other classmates were also having issue on this, whenever we click on create hotspot, it loads and first say "doing cleanup...", then "not working".
Could you open terminal and run the program from there please. Should give more information about why it's not working.

It inly works when i turn off my wifi, but then there is no purpose of this application.
Moreover, it is working fine on ubuntu 24.04 but not on 24.10.
I could be that your wifi is connected to a 2.4ghz channel AP and you are trying to start a 2.4ghz hotspot.
Could you try changing one please? eg, connect to a 5ghz wifi and create a 2.4ghz hotspot or visa versa?
