Has anyone figured out reverse tethering (AP mode) Internet on macOS Sequoia 15.4.1 M1 Arm when macOS is Internet sharing over ethernet (via usb 10/100/1000) to broadcast a new WiFi AP? - I confirmed I have Internet with the ethernet in the USB hub in macOS. - I verified that this is en8 interface with the USB 10/100/1000 name - I enabled Internet sharing over the same interface over WiFi to turn macOS into an AP - I configured the WiFi SSID to broadcast under a custom name with a custom WPA2/3 password - My WiFi Internet icon on the top right says I'm sharing over channel 11 The issue is: - My phone can see a new broadcasted SSID but its the hostname of my laptop instead of my custom SSID name - When I connect my phone to macOS AP WiFi, there is no Internet - Network settings in macOS show that the WiFi is 'Not Connected' - No error messages are shown - I checked logs in /var/logs and no luck This seems like a configuration issue. How can I debug this? I looked at related questions and couldn't find a way forward.
