Maybe also check which version of network-manager you have.

@krake, hopefully, one of the undermentioned demonstrates this:

Basically testing if just changing the password fails or if the hotspot does not work even when created with a valid password.

It appears to reproduce regardless, for the undermentioned occurs upon activating the hotspot on a reboot:

Additionally, it now (I don’t think this was true beforehand) doesn’t appear when connected to a Wi-Fi network:

1. 

2. 

I remember experiencing this > 3 years ago on an old laptop that I still have, and expecting that it was due to its aged hardware. However, on a Framework 16? It can’t have that poor of a Wi-Fi chip!
