Whenyou use your phone as a Wi-Fi hotspot, you can share your phone's internet connection with other devices via Wi-Fi. To use your phone as a Wi-Fi hotspot, you need to set up your phone for internet.

It finds the hotspot and when I try to connect (after writing in password) "Connection to ***** has timed out, connection failed" It saves the connection and shows as saved but when tries to connect multiple times it says "wrong password" even it haven't been changed. After messing out the whole hotspot disappears from the wifi menu on my tablet, then it appears back when I reset network settings on iphone.


I have the same problem with my ipad pro 2018 hotspot. The interesting thing is, the hotspot works with another ipad wifi connecting to it and functioning, but an older android phone has the same problem as yours.


Restart the iPhone or iPad that provides Personal Hotspot and the other device that needs to connect to Personal Hotspot. Make sure that you have the latest version of iOS. On the iPhone or iPad that provides Personal Hotspot, go to Settings > General > Reset, then tap Reset Network Settings.


When I'm out in the field working, I use my phone's built in Wifi Hot Spot to gain internet access. For some reason, it won't allow me to VPN into my companies network while using my phone's Hot Spot.


It may be due to complications with the IP address assigned by your cell phone network. If possible, go to Settings, Cellular Networks, Preferred network type, and set it to 3G. Then try the VPN again.


I have a Pixel 6 Pro and had the same problem when connecting to a VPN a laptop connected to the phone's hotspot. I tried all suggestion but nothing worked. At last I tried to modify the APN type to "default,supl" instead of "default,supl,dun" and it works like a charm!


I have a Nokia 3.1a (from Walmart), and it appears to be basically running stock android. Overall it seems to work well other than two annoyances. Can't go back to 3 buttons, stuck with gesture interface. And the annoyance that this thread is for. The mobile hotspot feature works as long as the screen is turned on.


As fun as it is setting the screen to time out after 30 minutes, I would love it, if it would stay on while the screen was off. I thought maybe the wifi chip was turning off. Google has hidden the "wifi on during sleep" setting, so using ADB I can confirm that wifi_sleep_policy is 2 (always on).


And, It looks like I found the solution. It appears that when the screen is off, Wifi was scanning. Since Wifi can't be turned on when the mobile hotspot is turned on at the same time, it would stop transmitting the hotspot signal.


Actually "only" my laptop is not detecting "only" my mobile phone hotspot "HTC one E8" while all other systems are detecting my mobile hotspot, and also my laptop is detecting all other hotspots and running internet through them.


I have the exact same problem. My phone's hotspot gets detected by other phones, tablets, PCs etc. Also my phone's hotspot gets detected in other operating systems (e.g. Ubuntu Live CD, Remix OS) on my HP laptop but not on windows 10 OS(which I prefer to use everyday). By the way hotspots from other mobile phones get detected without any problem in the my current problematic windows 10. Moreover this problem didn't exist just after a few days of fresh windows 10 installation.


I've been using my hotspot on my 4g RAZR for the last month but I cannot find out how much I have used' I have the old unlimited data plan on my phone and I've read that it could possibly give me unlimited usage for my hotspot. How can I check my hotspot usage?

I want to connect my Roku device and tv using my iPhone hotspot. I need to know how to set this up and register the devices; so I receive login credentials. I have tried several passwords, but none of them work. Any help with this?


Your phone's hotspot is treated by Roku as any other WiFi connection. It will see it, and you'll enter the password to connect. You control that password, so you should know that. If there an issue with entering the characters? Does your password contain a character that's not on the on-screen keyboard to enter the password?


You set your password for the phone hotspot on the phone itself. Open the Settings app, and the top section contains Personal Hotspot. Touch that and you get the control panel. You have to allow others to join, and the WiFi password is listed there. If it contains something other than letters and numbers, change the password so it only has those.


There's nothing to "register" to use the iPhone hotspot. All they need is the correct password. I'm uncertain how many devices are permitted to connect to it, but online reports are from 3-5 devices.


Go back to the main page of the iPhone settings app and select Personal Hotspot. Change your password to the password of your home network 2.4GHz network. Toggle on Maximize Compatibility, and then toggle on Allow Others to Join at the top. Your hotspot should now be running and configured with the identical network name and password of your home router.


Wait and wait some more. I found that when I did this my doorbell and cameras connected within a couple of minutes to about 20, however, I could not see any video nor did many features work. After about 15 minutes for the doorbell I could use it as normal. After about 90 minutes the floodlight cam worked as it should. After about 3 hours both stick up cams joined the party.


My 2 new Ring cameras refused to finish the setup step the conventional way. I even upgraded my router from TP Link to Ubiquiti to try to resolve the issue. I followed your suggestion: the cameras worked perfectly on the hotspot. Then, I turned off the hotspot, started broadcasting the same SSID on my router, the cameras connected to the Wifi just fine, and the Ring app shows that they are checking in and updating their Device Health stats. However, neither liveview nor motion capture are working. Note that my 6 other Ring cameras work just fine.


I bought a UniFi router to get more control over network settings since TP Link waters down the GUI from a consumer perspective. I have troubleshooted this for many hours over the last few weeks. The last thing I have not yet tried is to run a tcpdump on the router.
