Upgraded my Intel Wifi Dashboard to 15.3.1 and not the hotspot keeps disappearing after a minute or so. The only to get other devices to connect again is to turn off the hotspot and turn it on again. Anyone else having this issue??

In version 15.3.1 Intel have added an inactivity timeout that cant be changed. I think it is around 2-3 minutes

They have also removed the ability to restart after reboot.

15.x is practically useless for permanent hotspots. Go back to 14.3
