    Mobile hotspot - vpn use


    so i'm trying to set up one of my three ethernet connected networked pcs (all windows 10, 64 machines) as a mobile hotspot to be used as a vpn gateway for my apple tv, but i just can't quite sort it out and am hoping for some help.

    first, enabling "mobile hotspot" works on two of my machines but not on the thrid (i get a "we can't set up mobile hotspot" error message when i try to enable it, but none of the many, many google "fixes" i've tried works)... but i should be able to use one of the other networked machines as a hotspot, right? also, all three machines have the same vpn software installed.

    i tried going the vpn router route, i.e. connecting to a router that's been configured with a vpn, but i quickly discovered that i don't want all of my machines accessing the web via vpn because it's considerably slower than a direct connection, and i have no need for a vpn connection for all of my machines.

    as mentioned, this is all about getting my apple device to go through a vpn (as opposed to configuring the dns settings i the apple device), and at first blush setting up a mobile hotspot, a virtual router, on one of vpn enabled pcs seemed like the best option, but i just can't seem to get it to work.

    any help would be greatly appreciated!

    :)

    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.
