Welcome, Infonomi is a real me, C25Y and today I will show you how to enable and set up the
0:12
portable hotspot. So to get started you'll want to pull down your notification panel and look for the toggle
0:19
which for me looks to be on the second page right over here, hotspot
0:23
Once you find it, the first time around you will most certainly want to hold the toggle
0:28
this will quickly take you to the settings, so click on Wi-Fi hotspot and I do recommend
0:33
you to start off with the hotspot password, because as you can see the ones that get set
0:38
by default is some randomly generated one, so number one it's not easy to remember and
0:44
number two it's just complete gibberish. So we can remove this one and set our own
0:49
Password does need to have 8 characters in length at least, that can be letters or numbers
0:54
it doesn't really matter, and you can save it. And to be honest that is all you would really need to change, rest of the things are just
1:03
kind of optional to change. So number one hotspot name, that's just going to be visible in the list, look for the device's name
1:11
Security, keep it as it is, turn off hotspot automatically, I also would keep it as it
1:14
is, it will save you some battery when you forget to turn off your hotspot yourself
1:20
it will do it for you. A lot of people connected to your hotspot, you can change that if you want to, to something
1:27
more reasonable. Hide the SSID, keep it as it is, otherwise your network will be hidden
1:33
Whitelist mode, you can also add the whitelisting people, or devices, and also gives you some
1:39
info how many people are connected. Once you went through all the settings and customized them to however you want them to
1:44
work, you can toggle it on either from here, right up here on the toggle, or from your
1:50
notifications right here. Now, probably when you're going to be using this later on, it's much easier to toggle
1:58
it on and off from here by just simply tapping on it this time around
2:03
So as you can see, now it's enabled, and you can connect to your hotspot
2:07
So that is how you would customize it, and basically use it
2:13
And additionally, I'll add one little info right here. When you're using your hotspot, pay attention right now, Wi-Fi is on
2:21
When you turn on hotspot, it will use the same antennas for Wi-Fi as it does for hotspot
2:29
So by using hotspot, you lose Wi-Fi capabilities, because it's broadcasting it to the same way
2:34
you would normally use it. So keep that in mind when you're running hotspot, and you're wondering why are you basically
2:41
consuming so many megabytes or gigabytes of your mobile data plan. That is basically the reason for it
2:48
So once you turn it off, it automatically gives you back your Wi-Fi
2:52
But anyway, this is how you would use your hotspot, and if you found this very helpful, don't forget to hit like, subscribe, and thanks for watching
