Problem to make a hotspot network

Hi! Sorry by my English. The issue is, before a update the system I connected some things with my laptop using a hotspot network. But the another day I updated my system to kernel 4 and now I can not make the hotspot network. When I try to make it, the system freezes, nothing works, the keyboard, the screen and I need to reboot the system by the bad way... What could be? Is by the new kernel? How can I fix it?

lspci | grep -i network
02:00.0 Network controller: Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8188CE 802.11b/g/n WiFi Adapter (rev 01)

Re: Problem to make a hotspot network

May be you are suffering from the problems with the networkmanager?
See: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=197051
If so, downgrade the networkmanager https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Do … g_packages to the version before the current version.
And upgrade again to the newer version, there is a newer version that will the problem.

Hi! thank´s by the answers. I downgraded the network manager but the problem was not fixed, so I think the network manager is not the problem.

Re: Problem to make a hotspot network

You have provided no useful info whatsoever. How did you "make the hotspot network" before the upgrade? What things did you connect to your laptop with this network?
