Welcome and follow me as a Zenfone 9 and today I'll show you how we can enable
0:06
and set up your portable hotspot. So to get started you will want to pull down
0:15
your notifications, extend the list and somewhere in here you'll find the
0:19
hotspot toggle. Now for me it's right at the beginning right here. Once you find
0:25
your toggle hold the hotspot toggle and this will take you to the settings where
0:28
you can customize it. And the reason you want to navigate in here is because by
0:33
default you will have some randomly generated password. You can tap on it to
0:38
view it but as you can see this is just abominable so I recommend just removing
0:44
it and setting up your own. Your password does need to have at the least eight
0:48
characters in length, letters, numbers, it doesn't really matter, at which point you
0:53
can save it. Now you also have the name of the network which by default will be
0:56
the name of the device itself so Zenfone 9. Maybe not the name but the model of it
1:02
And if you want you can change it but this will be visible in the list so you
1:07
don't need to worry too much about it. And rest of the settings I would
1:11
recommend changing if you know what they do. If you are not certain what these
1:16
settings will do I then recommend keeping them with whatever they are set right now as. That will ensure that you can use your hotspot whenever
1:25
you really need it without any kind of problems. The default settings are set to
1:30
basically work with any kind of device that has any kind of network
1:35
connectivities. But if you change it that will no longer be the case. So as an
1:40
example if you change your Wi-Fi from by default it's set to be, I guess, both of
1:47
them. So I guess it is set to the best ones having all the options basically
1:54
enabled at the same time. So it's already set to be pretty good so we shouldn't
1:59
have any kind of problems. And if you can utilize a better one then you will be
2:03
utilizing the better network. But from here once you change the password and
2:07
whatever else you want to you can close this and you don't have to come back
2:11
here ever again. And whenever you want to use your hotspot just tap on a toggle. As
2:18
you can see it will be then lit up like this and it is right now running in a
2:22
background. Which you can see it just this tiny little icon right over here. So I'm
2:29
just gonna grab this thing. So this icon right over here is the icon for the
2:33
hotspot. Now in the settings there was a setting to turn off hotspot
2:40
automatically after five minutes of inactivity. So if you haven't changed that that's great. Once you're done using your hotspot you can just basically stop
2:49
using it and the phone will turn it off automatically for you. Now you do want to
2:54
keep that on because hotspot will consume more of your battery life and if
2:58
you're not using it there is really no reason to have it running in the
3:02
background. And obviously you can also turn it off yourself by finding the
3:07
toggle once more, tapping on it and voila it's now off. So if you found this very
3:14
