Related to the mobile hotspot issues, if you want a proper solution, then you need to follow this guide to learn about numerous easy and small fixes that will help you resolve this issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We have discussed plenty of fixes that will help you eliminate the hotspot-related issues on your Samsung. Without wasting your time, continue reading this guide to the end and you will be able to find the ultimate fix to your problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sometimes, a minor glitch in the device software happens to cause such an issue. These types of minor problems can be very well eliminated by performing a soft reset on your device. To do that, there are very simple steps to follow below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n That’s it, you have successfully performed a soft reset on your Samsung.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The range of hotspots varies depending on your device’s WiFi hotspot protocol. Normally, it can provide a range of between 65 to over 300 feet. Therefore, you need to be in a range. Try to reduce the distance between the main mobile hotspot device and other phones.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Hotspot problem might also occur due to the weak signal strength of your device’s cellular network. If the signals are weak, then your device might be unable to share the hotspot network with another device. Hence, make sure that the signal strength is strong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Most of the problems occur due to an outdated version of software running on the device. Hence, you need to check for the latest update and if available, then download and install it on your smartphone. Downloading and installing the latest updates is very simple and can be done by following below simple steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If any recent version of the update is available, then download and install it on your Samsung.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can also give it a try to change the IP settings on your phone. Switching from DHCP to a static IP address might resolve the hotspot-related issues on your smartphone. You can do this by following the simple instructions below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hopefully, this will fix the hotspot issue and you will able to use the internet via hotspot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Another fix that can lead you to eliminate this particular issue is by booting into the recovery mode of your smartphone. By doing so, you will be then able to wipe the cache partition. This method removes all the temporary files that might be causing issues to your device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Steps To Follow below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n That’s it, you are done with clearing the system cache. Once your smartphone boots up successfully, then check whether the hotspot is working fine or still the problem persists.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Depending on the phone model, some phones are compatible with the 2.4 GHz band,s and some support both the bands 2.4 and 5 GHz.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Therefore, you need to confirm the compatibility of your hotspot by switching from the default selected band to another available band. Like, if 5 GHz is by default the selected hotspot band, then switch to the 2.4 GHz band.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here are the steps below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n There are several options in the network settings that are by default enabled on your phone or you might have enabled them when they are required. But all the options are not feasible for a particular feature such as a hotspot. One of these options includes a Data Saver Mode that needs to be disabled on your phone while connecting to a hotspot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The data saver mode’s aim is to save data and hence limit data consumption which might cause network interruptions and other related issues.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Before enabling the Hotspot network, you need to disable Bluetooth on your device. This is because both of these mediums might be using the same frequency bands such as 2.4GHz which might cause the interference issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Therefore, it’s better to disable Bluetooth in the first place. Contrary to this, if your device is supporting both 2.4 GHz and 5GHz bands, then you can switch your Hotspot network to the 5GHz band to eliminate Bluetooth interference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Check whether you have turned ON the Airplane mode accidentally on your devices. If so, then you will be unable to use the Hotspot feature. The Airplane mode enabled on your device would disable all the other connectivity mediums such as WiFi, cellular Network, and Mobile hotspots.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Therefore, disable the Airplane mode on your Samsung.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If the cellular connection is enabled on your phone while connecting to a Hotspot, then this might cause an issue due to network prioritization. Your phone will prioritize the connection based on the network quality. If the cellular network such as 3G, 4G, and 5G is more stable than your desired hotspot network you are connecting to, then it will automatically try to connect to the cellular network.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Therefore, to avoid this issue, you might need to turn OFF the cellular network on your Phone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There might also be a possibility of a minor glitch in your network settings. Therefore, to get the network back on track, this can be done with a simple refresh. To do that, simply disable the Hotspot on your device and then wait for some time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n After a few minutes of time, again enable the Hotspot on your device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There might be several apps automatically updating in the background on your smartphone which could slow down the network and causes connection issue. You need to check and disable all the apps for auto-updates on your smartphone. Also, pause all downloading such as OS updates, movies, and music on your smartphone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can\u2019t ignore the VPN if you are facing any network issues on your device. Most of the time, the VPN is the real culprit behind the network issue. Therefore try to avoid VPN in the first place when connecting your device to a mobile hotspot. Disable the VPN on your smartphone while using the Hotspot.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This feature is helpful at a time when your primary concern is battery power. It reduces the performance of your device to enhance the battery power of your device due to which many of the features are unable to perform well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Hence, you need to disable the power saving on your phone. Along with this, also deactivate the \u201cAdaptive battery\u201d, and \u201cadaptive power saving\u201d options on your device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Further, access the hotspot settings and disable the power saving there also by following the steps below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n There is also an alternative option to a mobile hotspot when sharing an internet connection with other devices. With the help of Bluetooth, you can connect your smartphone to other phones to share an internet connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Performing a network reset on your phone might resolve the network issue well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n This will reset all the network settings including Wi-Fi, Mobile Data, and Bluetooth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n This method is very effective and worth considering when facing any kind of issue on your device. This will restore all the settings to the factory default settings. But you need to take a complete backup of your important data as it will wipe all the available data on your device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Here are the steps below:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Please wait for the process to complete, once it finishes, the phone will boot up and will be directed to the Welcome screen.
