Welcome, I'm Filomena Zivivo, Y72 and today I'll show you how to enable and set up the
0:12
portable hotspot. So to get started, pull down your notification panel and find the hotspot toggle
0:20
Between the toggles, for me it's right over here. So once you find it, you can hold it
0:25
This will quickly take you to the settings where you can simply tap on Wi-Fi hotspot
0:30
and start off by changing the password. When you tap on it, it will show you the default randomly generated one, but as you can see
0:37
it's not the easiest thing to remember or write down, so what I advise you to do is
0:42
simply remove this one and set your own. That password does need to have at least 8 characters in length, at which point you will
0:51
be able to save it. And additionally you can also change things like AP band if your device supports 5GHz
0:58
I do recommend going for it, the connection is stable and faster over the 2.4
1:04
The downside is not every device will support it, specifically the older devices, meaning
1:10
like 2015, might not, so just keep that in mind. And lastly we have hotspot name, which just reminds the name of the Wi-Fi that the device
1:22
will create. By default it's just the name of the device itself, so fairly easy to remember
1:29
And actually last thing that I'll mention, this toggle right here, turn off hotspot automatically
1:35
I do recommend having this enabled. What it does is once you're not using the hotspot, for instance you just disconnected
1:42
from it or just stopped using it, the phone will, after a specific time of an activity
1:48
simply turn it off. The reason this is good is because hotspot does consume more of your battery, so when
1:54
it's enabled permanently, your battery will drain significantly quicker, so this will
1:59
just kind of help you preserve your battery. But anyway, once you have gone through all the settings, customized them to your liking
2:07
all you need to do is simply toggle it on by tapping on the toggle, like so
2:11
But if you turn it on and turn it off, you can also do it the same way by tapping on
2:17
it again, or by waiting for it to turn off automatically. So anyway, if you found this video helpful, don't forget to hit like, subscribe, and
