Describe the bug A clear and concise description of what the bug is.

After installation, I ran wihotspot and try to enable it. I got an error that I cannot be connected to Wi-Fi and be an AP at the same time. So, I went to Wi-Fi settings and disconnected the current Wi-Fi (Forget Connection). After that, I tried again, but it still failed. When going back to Wi-Fi settings I noticed "No Wi-Fi Adapter Found".

To Reproduce Steps to reproduce the behavior:

  1. Install Manjaro beta28
  2. Install linux-wifi-hotspot (I used yay)
  3. Run wihotspot
  4. See error(s) under Additional Context

Expected behavior A clear and concise description of what you expected to happen.

Be able to create a hotspot and connect and use my laptop (MacBook).

I had this issue in the past, I wasted so much time trying to figure out what caused the problem and in the end, I had to reset my laptop.
