Hi all,
I have had a problem recently to connect to the hotspot of my phone through wifi. This happened after I made an update of the system, yet it problem persists after reboot with an old kernel. I do can connect to different hotspot phone wifi and others, so the problem is specifically with my phone that I had no problem to connect before.
In Gnome it attempt to connect and after a while it ask me the password, yet it does not connect. Using nmcli the result is the following:
Error: Connection activation failed: (7) Secrets were required, but not provided.
and
journalctl --system --since today
return the following chunk:

Any idea how to reset or allow to reconnect to the device wifi?
thanks
