Windows 10: Some Windows Updates between June 14th-15th makes mobile Wifi hotspot causing Firefox to...

Yes, I saw some other post, but my symptoms is something else.

Tested several times, it is 100% reproducible, as soon as I turn on Wifi hotspot in Win 10, Firefox will crash. And for Google Chrome, many webpages refuse to load and barely made it

Updated motherboard LAN driver, WLAN BT driver, doesn't solve problem.

Windows not discovering mobile hotspot

Hello everyone,
I have been connecting my mobile hotspot with my laptop wifi for more than 3 months, but recently I faced a problem.
My laptop is unable to discover my mobile phone's hotspot. But my laptop can discover other mobile phone's hotspot.

Again, my mobile hotspot is discoverable by any other devices except my laptop.

I have done the following things but it failed to solve the problem:
1. I clicked "forgot" my mobile hotspot network under wifi settings/mange known network in my laptop.
2. I have uninstalled my laptop's wifi driver and reinstalled a new one.
3. I have checked for updates and installed all the updates shown in my laptop.
4. I have factory rest my phone.

I use Windows 10 in my laptop.
Anyone who can suggest me anything about the problem?

 

wifi hotspot connection issues

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

Let us follow these steps one by one to check if that makes any difference.

Step 1: You may run the Network Adapter troubleshooter to check if that helps.

• Type Troubleshoot in the Search bar of your PC and open the Troubleshoot settings.
  
• Scroll down the right pane and select ‘Network Adapter’ and click on ‘Run Troubleshooter’.
  
• The PC will then start checking for the possible errors and will possibly detect the issue.
  

Once this is done, restart the PC and check the wifi hotspot connectivity.

Step 2: If the issue persists, then you may want to
update the Network driver and check the status.

Step 3: You may also want to change the adapter settings.

• Open Mobile Hotspot settings on your PC.
  
• Press ‘Windows key + I’ to open Settings and go to ‘Network and Internet’.
  
• Scroll down the left pane and select ‘Mobile Hotspot’.
  
• Go to ‘Related Settings’ from the right pane and click on ‘Change adapter options’.
  
• Identify your mobile hotspot adapter, right click and go to ‘Properties’.
  
• Open Sharing tab and Uncheck “Allow other network users to connect through this computer’s Internet connection”.
  

Hope this helps.

Let us know if you got the help you needed by clicking ‘Yes’ or ‘No’.
