Hello. Is there anyone still following this?
I'm running Kubuntu 11.10 and I'm trying to share wired internet by creating an ad hoc wi-fi net. I've already read lots of threads at both ubuntu and kubuntu forums, but can't find a way to get it working on KnetworkManager or wicd. I'd prefer to get it working on KnetworkManager, but I'm facing two main issues. The main issues are: 1) when I set eth0 to share connection, my net stops working and I have to revert it back to automatic; and 2) even after creating an ad hoc network, I can't connect to it, others computers can't see it and it has no sinal strenght (it's not that the signal is weak, it has no signal at all). Back to 2010, on this same machine and with Ubuntu 10.04 it was easy and pretty straight forward, just a few clicks and done, no need to configure anything...
Please help.
