  2. Windows 10 Mobile Hotspot Not working

    Hi,

    Your Bluetooth connection may be enabled which prevents you from setting up your mobile hotspot. To have this addressed, we suggest turning off the Bluetooth connection and see if you're able to set up your mobile hotspot. Follow these steps:

    • Open Settings and select Devices.
    • Click Bluetooth, then toggle it OFF.

    Once done, check if you can now turn on your computer's mobile hotspot. Let us know how it goes.

    Regards.

    Mobile Hotspot Problem

    To isolate your concern, we recommend that you reconfigure your mobile hotspot to make things work. We suggest that you uninstall the network adapter through device manager. To do this, follow the steps below:

    • Right-click on the Start Menu.
    • Select Device Manager.
    • Look for Network adapters and click on it to expand.
    • Right-click from the network device and click on Properties.
    • Go to Driver tab and select Uninstall.
    • Restart your computer for the changes to take effect. Note that Windows 10 includes native drivers for your network adapter. It will be reinstalled automatically.
    • In the Search box, type
      Settings
      and press Enter.
    • Click on Network and Internet.
    • Select Mobile Hotspot.
    • Turn on Mobile Hotspot.
    • Reconfigure your Wi-Fi name and its password.
    • Reconnect your devices and check if the issue persists.

    Give us an update with the outcome.

    Mobile Hotspot

    We appreciate that you have tried the suggested steps above. Have you tried to connect other devices to the mobile hotspot on your PC?

    Since the issue is still the same, we suggest that you uninstall/reinstall the network adapter driver and check if this will resolve the issue. Follow the steps below:


    • Press Windows key + X and click on
      Device manager
      .

    • Locate for Network adaptor and click on it expand it.

    • Right click on the device and click on
      uninstall
      .

    • Once you are done uninstalling the driver, restart the computer. It will automatically install the generic network adapter driver.

    We can also update the network adapter driver. Skip step 3 from the above steps and right click on the device and click on update.

    Feel free to post back for any updates.
