Ubuntu 18.04 Broadcomm BCM43142 Wi-Fi hotspot not working












1















I have installed Ubuntu 18.04 on my HP notebook and installed Wi-Fi drivers successfully but if I try to create a Wi-Fi hotspot, it shows that the hotspot is on but I cannot find the given hotspot on any other device so I guess it was never created. Any help?
Chip ID: BCM43142
PCI ID: 14e4:4365
