Android Question How to start an existing local wifi hot spot

[toby]

I've created manually a local hot spot, one and only, on my device and I want to be able to start and stop it programmatically.

I used the following sample code from this thread, and I got a hot spot up and running, unfortunately the started hot spot was not the existing one, but a newly created with random ssid and unknown password, similar to the Start Local only hot spot code snippet does.

Is it possible to achieve what I desire? If so, could someone kindly show me how, please?

Sample project attached

TIA
