Larry, On your iphone under settings and mobile you need to enable personal hotspot Then under settings in the personal hotspot feature setup what you want the password to be and then ensure you have saved it Oh and check what your phone is called under settings, general / about this phone,
Then making sure personal hotspot is on to allow users to see it, Bring up the wifi connection settings on your computer and find the phones name and then click connect and fill in the password you setup on the hotspot Probably more important is making sure your provider allows for hotspotting from your phone. -----Original Message----- From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Larry Sent: Saturday, 14 March 2020 5:33 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: Using iPhone 8 as hotspot Hello, I am attempting to create a hotspot with my iPhone and computer. I would appreciate some info as to how I could get my computer to see the WiFi connection. I think I am close but can’t complete the process. Is it better to use Bluetooth or direct connection? Also if there is a good chrome book discussion list I would like to have that information. Thanks very much.
