The internet is connected through eth0 on the laptop. I do seem to have some network problems (stopping of downloads) from my Android phone for large downloads, so perhaps that is related to this dmesg output. But I have not used the Android + Hotspot + Laptop enough to say for sure yet. But I guess the above error message should be fixed anyway. I'm on a Lenovo T530 laptop running an updated Debian Sid, but using networkmanager (0.9.8.8-1) from the experimental distribution, and the most recent Debian subversion repository version of wpasupplicant (v.1.1-1). I had to update network-manager and wpasupplicant due to some other problems.
