NM 1.4.4 and hotspot problem

[Belisko Marek <marek belisko gmail com>]

Hi,

I'm trying to configure hotspot by using this command:
nmcli dev wifi hotspot ifname wlan0 ssid test password "test1234"

on orangepi which is using realtek wifi (out of tree driver). When
want to setup simple hotspot it looks like there are soe mtroubles
with iptbles + dnsmasq. Any ideas what can cause this issue? Thanks
