Tethering

Tethering from Sony X has suddenly stopped working. I have tried all the usual fixes:

Reboot including safe mode, reset network settings, forget network then redo. It was working perfectly with my tablets which neither will connect to Sony hotspot now. I keeo getting 'connected no Internet'. Phoned EE today, everything fine their end and my mobile data is working perfectly. Why is it suddenly not working; it's obviously the phone?

And how's your hotspot settings?

Did you redo those as well?

Yep, tried every fix in the book! Even tried static ip, no joy.

Just to confirm I did change hotspot settings: new name and password and checked they were correct on the other device, but seeing as it is connected as such it does confirm that anyway, but I still made sure 'cos I'd changed them to try and fix things, but no luck.

It's working again now. Don't know how or why, just had a phone call from ee to see how I'm getting on. I hadn't checked, so I tethered while on the phone and it connected to my old nexus and is staying connected!

That's when miracles occur.

Happy for you!
