Welcome! In front of me is a Google Pixel 7 and today I'll show you how you can
0:05
enable and set up your portable hotspot. So to get started swipe down on your screen, actually straight from
0:15
the top, extend the list and in here you'll find somewhere a hotspot toggle
0:31
... Either I am blind or I can't see it in here
0:50
Anyway I can't find it so I'm just gonna navigate into the settings. From here
0:55
let's navigate to our network and internet and then hotspot and tethering, Wi-Fi hotspot. We can enable it from here and I'll obviously turn it
1:10
off and you can change the hotspot name. This will be the Wi-Fi name that is visible in the list of all the accessible Wi-Fi's but most importantly
1:17
you probably want to change the hotspot password which is generated randomly by
1:22
default when you set up the device. So just remove this one and set up your own
1:26
Now your own password does need to have at least eight characters in a length
1:30
that can be letters and numbers it doesn't really matter. There, click on OK
1:34
and that's about it. Now we have also two additional toggles turn off hotspot
1:38
automatically. I do recommend keeping this off. This will disable hotspot after like 10 minutes of an activity so you won't need to remember to turn it
1:46
off. As long as you're using it it will continue to be enabled but the moment
1:51
you stop using it it starts a countdown and then after that moment turns it off
1:55
automatically. And then X10 compatibility will allow I believe all their devices to connect to it. Though I'm guessing either it's going to be
2:04
using 5 gigahertz Wi-Fi or it's using 2.4 and adding 5. Whichever way you can
2:10
enable it and you have probably more usability but it will probably use
2:15
increased battery usage so yeah if you want to preserve your battery turn it
2:20
off if you don't care then turn it on. And once you set it up like I mentioned
2:25
before you can just simply toggle it on from here. Now there should be also the
2:30
toggle somewhere in here for some reason I cannot locate it but as you see you
2:37
can access it through settings by going into network and internet and then
2:44
hotspot. So anyway if you found this video helpful don't forget to hit like
