  2. Mobile hotspot No network access

    Hi,

    To fix the issue, we suggest that you follow these steps:

    • Connect your PC to your WiFi.
    • Right-click on the WiFi tray and click on Open network and sharing center.
    • Click on Change adapter settings which is present at the left side of the window.
    • Right-click on your WiFi and click on Properties, then click on the
      Sharing tab.
    • Check the box next to Allow other network to connect through this computer's internet and
      Allow other network users to control or disable the shared internet and click
      OK.
    • Go to Settings > Network & Internet >
      Mobile Hotspot
      and turn it on.

    • After you turn on the hotspot, go back to the Change adapter settings window. You will find a connection called
      Local area connection* 20. The number 20 may differ.
    • Do step 4 again. In Sharing tab below the first checkbox, select the
      Local area connection* 20 from the drop-down.

    Regards.

  3. drop down menu network connection

    hi!

    I'm trying to make my computer a hotspot, every step goes just fine until I try to connect the ethernet to my hotspot.

    The problem is that there is supposed to be a drop down menu to select the ethernet as the connection I want, but in stead of a drop down menu I have a white box that say wireless network connection, I can't select any other options. (after right click on
    the ethernet, than properties and the the folder 'share'.

    Is there a way to fix it and get the drop down menu anyway or can I connect it in an other way without having to use the drop down menu?
