Public bug reported: I upgraded my Ubuntu client to 20.04 and could continue to connect to my WPA Hotspot running on an Ubuntu server. Upon update of the server to 20.04 I could no longer connect with any of my various client OSs.
After using the updated network-manager from https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/network-manager/+bug/1870359, I can now connect to the hotspot from all of my machines running many flavors of OS (Windows, MacOS, Android, Ubuntu 19.10), but I cannot connect from my machine running Ubuntu 20.04. If I turn off the encryption on the hotspot or turn on WEP encryption (using nm-connection-editor), then I can connect. Seeing that my client running 19.10 can connect, I'm not sure if this is a problem specif to my particular laptop running 20.04, or if it is rather a problem that any client updating to 20.04 will have. I will update my other 19.10 machine, that is currently working with the WPA hotspot, to help differentiate between these two possibilities.
