## Support for WIFI Auto-Hotspots on Ubuntu Server
The following information applies when installing PiPedal on Ubuntu Server 24.0x only. This information does not apply
to Unbuntu Desktop installs or Raspberry Pi OS Lite installs.
PiPedal's Auto-Hotspot feature only works on Linux systems that are using the Network Manager network services stack.
Ubuntu Server 24.x (and probably other server-specific installs on other Debian distros) uses the Netplan network services stack by instead. It does so because the Netplan network stack is the preferred network stack when managing
farms of cloud servers.
It's easy enough to reconfigure Ubuntu Server to run the Network Manager network stack instead. However you should be
aware that Netplan TCP/IP configuration settings will not be migrated to Network Manager. If you perform this step on a server on which changes have beeen madce to Netplan configuration files, you will need to manually migrate those
changes to Network Manager configuration files. On a clean install of Ubuntu Server, this will not be a problem.
To reconfigure Ubuntu Server to use the Network Manager network stack (and therefore enable PiPedal's Auto-Hotspot feature), run the following command:
sudo apt install network-manager
