Unless the mobile device has some kind of protection on it then it would have to be the network on the hotspot but since you tried different devices that seems less likely. Maybe try to reflash the RS2? I would send a full system report to sup...@emlid.com and they will get you taken care of. Make sure to keep us updated though.
Only way I can get it to work is,
turn off auto join on all other networks in iphones list
connect to RS2 hot spot
use rv2 or 3, select your stored, manually entered phone hotspot click join
do the mad race to turn on your phones hotspot
wait and hope it connects.
Could you clarify what model do you have? If you have iPhone 12 series, you need to enable Maximize compatibility option on its Personal hotspot page. This will switch its hotspot to 2.4 GHz and ensure connection to the device.
I've this same problem on iPhone 8 running iOS 13.1.3. My devices (Windows laptop, Fire TV, Android phone) can see the iPhone hotspot and connects to it but there is no internet connectivity thru hotspot, though i can browse internet on my iPhone.
Having same issues with my 8plus. Following step 10 worked except I only have internet on IPV4, but at least I have it, so thank you. I use the hotspot for work in the field, I guess the question now is am I going have to do step 10 every time I need internet while working. As with others my hotspot was fine until I updated to 13.1.3.
Lost internet connection while writing this back on house internet now. I have been to my carrier several times and they said they are having a lot of calls about hotspot issues on the iphones. So yes Apple please fix this.
I give full credit to these solutions to ska8ter skate. This works for Roku: turn off WiFi on your iOS device. Go to Roku Settings, Then System, Advanced System Settings, choose Network Connection Reset and reset connection.
After updating to iOS 13.2, the issue is resolved. I can now connect to hotspot and get internet access as well on other devices. No issues even after i connect these other devices to another WiFi or hotspot and connect again to iPhone hotspot.
Hi, having an issue with my zenfone9 and it's hotspot. I've tried connecting a few different devices to my hotspot. The devices can connect no problem but they are not receiving an internet connection even though I've my mobile data on. Just did a full reset on my phone and still won't work
This is a 5G bug and it appears to be a Zenfone 9 issue. I am using Consumer Cellular. While I do not have any other unlocked 5G phones to prove my theory by moving my SIM card around, I think I'm on the right track here. And anyway, I've found a workaround.
Asus support asked me if I'm ok continuing to use 4G. I said of course not, and asked them to escalate this to the dev team to get this bug fixed, because obviously everyone needs this to work on all network types! I'll plan to call back once a month to nag them, and I'll post back here if there is any update. If there is no more response from me, it probably hasn't been fixed yet.
Alright, four factory resets later and I can never even get to the state where the hotspot works in 4G mode anymore. Asus support said the only option for me is to return the device or have it fixed by their service center, which we know won't work. Lame!
Several months ago the mobile hotspot stopped working in my GMC Acadia. When I turn the car on I normally get a message about it connecting to my phone and then another message about the wifi being connected. I still get the first message about the car connecting to my phone but not the second message. And when I try to connect a phone or tablet to the car's mobile hotspot it doesn't even show up as an available network anymore. So I took it to my local GMC dealer who did all the diagnostics and said that GMC said to replace the OnStar module. So after waiting a while to even be able to get one, we did that. They told me that I would have to contact OnStar to activate the new module which I did. When that was done and I told the OnStar agent the problem I was having, they tested it and said that they could get no wifi single out of the car at all. They said that it was probably either a loose wire or maybe it needed a new wifi module, and that I needed to take it back to the dealership. I did and the dealership has had an open ticket with GMC for a while now with GMC coming back gathering information and with things to try to no avail. Today I was told that GMC is saying that I need to update the Google ID. What??? What does Google have to do with my GMC mobile hotspot working? How would I update it and what would I update it to? It seems like GMC is still chasing down the path of connecting the phone to the car but that's not the problem. The phone is connecting to the car via bluetooth just fine. The car just isn't connecting to the satellites or wherever it gets wifi service from because there is no wifi available in the car. Has anybody else had similar issues or know how to update the Google ID in the car? Thank you.

With the use of mobile hotspots, Android devices can serve as a network hub providing internet connectivity to other devices, which is helpful for remote and hybrid workers who need a backup connectivity option or an option during travel. However, all the variations that come from carrier customizations and OS versions can make it more difficult to support Android users.
Supporting Android device hotspots can present some challenges from both a technical and a security standpoint. IT administrators should understand the problems that sometimes come with mobile hotspots and how they can cause performance issues.
The Android OS is available on several different smartphones and tablets from several OEMs, and that can be both a strength and a weakness for the operating system. The large OEM ecosystem running different OS versions can make it challenging to support hotspots, primarily for organizations that have a BYOD program. Compatibility issues show up as dropped connections and slow speeds.
Android hotspots can pose a significant security risk to hybrid and remote workforces, as they might expose the connected device to unauthorized access. For example, an attacker could intercept sensitive data that a user transmits over their Wi-Fi hotspot. Hackers could also use the hotspot to launch attacks against other devices on the network.
Hotspot connectivity is meant for situational internet access, not as a full-time substitute for an internet connection. Like iPhone hotspots, Android devices have limited bandwidth for hotspot use. The ideal hotspot use case for end users is to send a last email or Slack message telling their coworkers that they've lost power or their internet is down.
Bandwidth limitations mean slow speeds or dropped connections when a user connects multiple devices to an Android hotspot. Poor network coverage or high demand for data usage also contribute to bandwidth issues.
Using an Android device as a hotspot can quickly drain the battery, especially if users turn it on for extended periods or connect multiple devices to it. Battery drain can significantly limit the usefulness of the hotspot for users who need to rely on their device for other functions.
Many users might not be aware of the security risks associated with using an Android hotspot. They also might not know how to secure their device and network properly. This lack of awareness can lead to the inadvertent exposure of sensitive information or the unintentional sharing of the hotspot with unauthorized users.
The other user training element to consider is the costs associated with hotspot data usage. A BYOD user resorting to their Android device hotspot for business connectivity could easily blow through their personal account's data allotment, leading to an unexpectedly high bill from their carrier. Such a high charge might exceed their corporate cellphone or BYOD expense allotment if not planned correctly. Users with an Android hotspot on their corporate-issued phone will need training on corporate hotspot usage policies, managing cellular data and troubleshooting.
Troubleshooting an Android smartphone hotspot can be tricky for service desks and end users. Creating troubleshooting documentation for the service desk and even providing end users with basic hotspot training is worth the extra time to help save the productivity of remote and hybrid workers. Service desk teams should start with their carrier's troubleshooting documentation for reliable instructions.
Not every Android device is set up to use a mobile hotspot. For example, Samsung devices require users to have a tethering plan on their account. While an organization might deploy Samsung devices to its employees, it's possible that not every employee's device will have a tethering plan. The IT department can set up a policy in its mobile device management (MDM) platform and turn hotspots on. In contrast, BYOD users who want to use a mobile hotspot for work will have to pay extra for their tethering plan, which could potentially exceed the remote work reimbursement from their employer.
The process to reset network settings on an Android device is another example of why supporting Android devices can be challenging. There can be variations between vendors and mobile carriers for the steps a user must follow to erase all saved Wi-Fi passwords, VPNs and Bluetooth pairings, so consulting the appropriate phone carrier's documentation is a good place to start.
