Welcome, and Flemmy's an Asus ROG Phone 3 and today I'll show you how to enable and
0:12
also set up the portable hotspot. So to get started, let's find a hotspot toggle in our notification panel somewhere right
0:20
here, and I can already see it, it's right over here. Once you find that, you want to hold the toggle, and this will take us to the settings where
0:27
you can actually customize the settings for it. So let's tap on the Wi-Fi hotspot, and from here we'll have all the settings that we can access
0:35
So let's start off with the hotspot password, which will probably be the most important
0:40
part because without it you can't really connect to the hotspot. So I'm gonna completely remove this one because it's just some random gibberish, and set my
0:48
own, and it's gonna be fairly easy. So as you can see, 1 to 8, it does need to have 8 characters in length, so once it does
0:56
you can tap on OK and it will be saved. Then we have also things like security, I'll keep it as it is
1:03
Then we have hotspot name, this is just gonna be the name of the Wi-Fi visible in the list
1:08
I can change it if you want to make it a little bit more simple, and also make it look a little
1:16
bit better if you want to. There we go. And also right here we have the option for turn off automatically after 5 minutes
1:28
Now this refers to turning it off automatically when it's not being in use, so the moment
1:32
hotspot basically doesn't have anybody connected to it, it will wait 5 minutes and then automatically
1:40
turn off, which is a really good option to have. Now if you don't want it you could set it to never or also increase the time that it
1:47
takes for it to turn off. So choose whichever one actually suits you
1:53
And also on the very bottom we have the earheadband, so in here we have actually the nice option
1:59
to having both of them. And if you're not sure what this is, it's basically a Wi-Fi range, so we have the 2.4
2:08
GHz and 5 GHz. Now the 5 GHz and 2.4 are completely different things, if you're thinking about for instance
2:15
the new phones with their capability of 5G mobile networking, even though this phone
2:21
has it, this part completely doesn't actually mention this. It's strictly Wi-Fi based, not mobile
2:30
So as an example, if you select only 5 GHz Wi-Fi, I can still connect to that Wi-Fi with
2:38
older devices that never had 5G capability. So this is strictly for Wi-Fi
2:45
Now that being said, still older devices, like way back older, will only support 2.4
2:52
but phones from like 5 years ago I believe will probably, flagships at least from 5 years
2:58
ago should support it. And basically nowadays majority of the devices do support it
3:06
So also if you're not sure if your device supports 5 GHz, you don't actually have to
3:11
choose one, you can go with both of them. So if for instance your device is one of those that doesn't support the 5 GHz Wi-Fi, it will
3:20
then only have the option of 2.4, which in that case you will only have one option to
3:25
connect to. So now once you choose one of those, or both, you can basically leave this, it will get
3:32
saved and simply tap on the toggle right here to turn it on, or also by going into your
3:38
notification panel and turning it on from here. Now additionally, once you are actually connected you can see a little bit of an icon right
3:50
here, this kind of like a weird circle next to the Bluetooth
3:55
This is basically to signify that the hotspot is on. And you can also see it right here in blue
4:01
You can also toggle it off manually by tapping on it. Now when you turn on hotspot it will disconnect from Wi-Fi as you can see, because it is using
4:10
your Wi-Fi as a way of basically broadcasting the Wi-Fi itself. So it basically takes your mobile network and sends it through Wi-Fi so other devices
4:20
can connect to it. Okay, that being said, that is basically how you'd use it and set it up
