<title>Create a wireless hotspot</title>

  <p>You can use your computer as a wireless hotspot. This allows other devices
  to connect to you without a separate network, and allows you to share an
  internet connection you’ve made with another interface, such as to a wired
  network or over the cellular network.</p>

<p>Things I'm not sure about: Is this actually ad-hoc? It seems to use the
same icon. What happens if you have multiple wireless adapters? Ought to be
able to share wireless to wireless, I think, but I don't know what the UI
looks like. Also, does any of this work? I couldn't successfully test.</p>
<p>Also, looks like there's no page to set the device name. Make one, then
link below where it says the name of the network is your device name.</p>

<steps>
  <item>
    <p>Open the <gui xref="shell-introduction#yourname">system menu</gui> from the right
    side of the top bar.</p>
  </item>
  <item>
    <p>Select
    <gui><media its:translate="no" type="image" mime="image/svg" src="figures/network-wireless-signal-excellent-symbolic.svg" width="16" height="16"/>
      Wi-Fi Not Connected</gui> or the name of the wireless network to which
    you are already connected. The Wi-Fi section of the menu will expand.</p>
  </item>
  <item>
    <p>Click <gui>Wi-Fi Settings</gui>.</p></item>
  <item><p>Click the <gui>Use as Hotspot…</gui> button.</p></item>
  <item><p>If you are already connected to a wireless network, you will be
  asked if you want to disconnect from that network. A single wireless adapter
  can connect to or create only one network at a time. Click <gui>Turn On</gui>
  to confirm.</p></item>
</steps>

<p>A network name (SSID) and security key are automatically generated.
The network name will be based on the name of your computer. Other devices
will need this information to connect to the hotspot you’ve just created.</p>
