I just tested this here and it did enable a hotspot. Can you extract some logs as well?

This might be a regression of Gnome/nm-applet because I was using this feature on Ubuntu 12.04 and it worked out of the box. There was a workaround in my case, though. Here are the steps I did: 1) Click the "Use as Hotspot" button and enter password when asked. At this point, nothing seems to happen as initially reported, but I found that it created a "Hotspot" profile under Wireless in Network Connections (Network Tools --> [choose wifi adapter] --> Configure). In my case, a "Hotspot" profile was created. 2) Edit the Hotspot profile. Change to desired SSID, change type to Ad Hoc (it defaults to Infrastructure), set security settings to desired password (it defaults to an automatically generated hex). Save when satisfied. 3) Go back to the "Use as Hotspot" button, click and provide password. The applet then now shows that the hotspot has been setup. The created hotspot was tested working with an iPad and another laptop. hwinfo --wlan 16: PCI 300.0: 0282 WLAN controller [Created at pci.319] Unique ID: hAO_.fM7x8XfqYVA Parent ID: z8Q3.jS7nT0BkQRD SysFS ID: /devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:1c.0/0000:03:00.0 SysFS BusID: 0000:03:00.0 Hardware Class: network Model: "Atheros AR9285 Wireless Network Adapter (PCI-Express)" Vendor: pci 0x168c "Atheros Communications Inc."
