    Mobile hotspot, unable to obtain IP address


    I've been using the mobile hotspot on windows 10 to provide internet for my phone for a year already and it was working flawlessly until June 2019 (somewhere around that time) which my mobile devices couldn't connect to it anymore. I've tried using 2 mobile phones in which both said they were "Failed to obtain IP address".


    I tried several solutions online but none of them worked:


    1. Unchecking the "Allow other network users to connect through this computer's Internet connection" on the Ethernet connection I'm trying to share.


    2. Resetting the network via the Network & internet AND the netsh and ipconfic commands.

    3. Updating the network adapter drivers.


    4. Deleted HostedNetworkSettings in regedit


    5. Enabled and Disabled ICS

    My laptop uses the Intel(R) Wireless-AC 9560 Adapter. I'm using Windows 10 Home 1803.

    One thing I'm super confused is that in netsh wlan show drivers, it says that Hosted network is NOT supported but it was clearly working before...

    :)

  2. Mobile hotspot on Dell Inspiron 15 will no longer obtain IP address

    The mobile hotspot on my Dell Inspiron 15 laptop WAS working fine, but now it will not obtain an IP address when I try to connect my phone, smart TV, etc., to it. My devices can see the network, and they try to connect, but I end up getting an error message
    that it 'failed to obtain IP address.'

    Mobile Hotspot after Creators Update - Connecting device stuck at 'Obtaining IP address'

    Hi,

    A new option showed up after updating to creator's update called 'Mobile Hotspot'. I set up new hotspot network name and password and tried to connect to the hotspot on my mobile phone. After entering the password and clicking connect on my mobile, the status
    is stuck at 'Obtaining IP address'.

    Are there any additional settings?

    I use Avast Premier Anti-Virus program.
