Guys,

Is there anyway I could start a hotspot in Ubuntu, while I'm still connected to the desired network, so that I share the internet connection?

It's given the ubuntu help.

I assumed he was talking about being connected via cable and then sharing over WiFi. Otherwise yeah, no way, sry

Windows is actually the only os that supports this as far as I know

Lol there are several mixed comments here. Let me get this clear. I am connected to a WiFi network and at the same time I wanna get the Hotspot up and running. @Lilithium, the network manager wants me to disconnect the wifi network im at present connected. Only then I could get the Hotspot on.
