Hi
In this house I have no internet at all neither rooter this I have no wifi network on my girlfriend's house ( she doesn't have any TV and the 5g connection is perfect, no need to add adsl ftth service).

If I use My android as hotspot file wifi transfer pro say me: fuck please connect to wifi hotspot. Even is computers are connected ( fuck since 2019's update)

On Ubuntu I can choose ssid I want and scan Qr code. Unfortunately QRcode is available only for gnome. Not for xfce.

How to configure porteus v5 XFCE to be visible with SSID I choose because I want to use porteus as hotspot to share files from my Android device to the Machintosh witch can't mount any pluged usb android device ( leopard so no possibility to download any driver for mtp)
And because file wifi transfer work only on client device
