Good grief!!! I've spent multiple attempts and hours to get this to work, with no luck. Ready to give up. Found this video and, skeptically, changed the name of my phone. Now it works!!! What in the world? Thank you so much.

Tried a few videos which left me baffled, I was almost losing the will to live when I clicked on your video - bliss, pure bliss. Someone who described it so clearly and simply (pretty straightforward process as it turns out). Nice, calm British accent too. Well done mate.

[@traarias6223]

“Losing the will to live” 😂 until you found this video.

Thank you SO MUCH!! Now I can finally use my laptop anywhere I want. I really appreciate the help.
It was so easy to follow your instructions because the way and words you used to explain what to do were very clear, crystal clear.

Hey thanks dude 😎
Not that you need my sob story
Buts it's 4am, internet service is doing "scheduled maintenance" and my mom was about to go into a nuclear meltdown😨 💥🤯💥cuz she can't do her online class work.
Lots of UA-camrs giving their daily dossier before getting to the instructions (kinda like I'm doing now🙄)
So I jus wanted to thank you for sharing your knowledge
My mom is up and running and the nuclear meltdown is counting back down to zero 🫠😮‍💨

The only way to fix a modem that has gone bad is to double check the wiring and my wiring is good…the only other thing is replacing the modem correct?
Hotspot query - so if I have no internet…I don’t need WiFi to turn on the personal hotspot for the data to be shared/run on my W10 laptop correct?

[@brianh.3468]

For most needing this feature, we are connecting to our phone as a Mobile Hot Spot because our WiFi is not available. The first thing you did was to "make sure your phone is connected to WiFi setting is turned on". If I can connect my phone to my local WiFi then I would not need the computer to connect to the hotspot because I have WiFi already available. I also noticed your phone was connected to the WiFi at the beginning of the video and then was not on wifi toward the later half of the video. Great instructions and it works but having my phone connected to Wifi and laptop connected to the hotspot seems useless. Why not just have both devices connected to the Wifi that your phone was paired with.

You just saved my ass. Thank you. It worked!!! I used the last trial method you mentioned: I changed my user name.
