  2. Laptop wont connect to Android hotspot 5ghz but does on 2.4ghz

    good evening, I have a problem where i cant connect to 5Ghz hotspot from my samsung 21. It is set up as 5Ghz on my phone but says unable to connect to network. If i set my phone as 2.4Ghz it will connect fine. I have ruled out the phone as i can connect my works phone to the 5Ghz hotspot. When i try set up my works phone as the 5Ghz hot spot i get the same issue on the laptop. I have tried everything i can think of. My laptop does connect to 5Ghz wifi as this is what i use in my home to game. It just seems to be hotspot that it wont allow. Below is a list of what i have tried. Forgetting the hotspot Flight mode Manually adding the wireless connection Changing network adapters to show 5Ghz connections only Updating windows to latest update Network adapters are updated One thing i did do that worked the first time was open command prompt and do these commands below netsh winsock reset netsh int ip reset ipconfig /release ipconfig /renew ipconfig /flushdns Then i restarted laptop and it connected to 5Ghz hotspot. Then after 30 minutes it disconnected and i have not been able to connect again, even after repeating the above steps. Please help! Thank you

    Making a hotspot from Ethernet connection doesn't work

    I tried several times unsuccessfully to make an internet hotspot for the ethernet connection on my laptop. I need further advice.

    Background:

    • The ethernet connection is working perfectly.
    • I want to make that connection an internet hotspot.
    What I have tried so far.

    1. I made the connection shared under its properties
    2. I tried to make the ethernet connection a hotspot, by editing the network as per the screenshot I shared, but to no success.
    3. I uninstalled the driver under Device Manager and restarted the laptop. It didn't work as well.
    Questions for clarity

    1. Is it possible to have an ethernet connection as a hotspot? Will it be through Bluetooth? Or if you could please explain, how will other devices such as cell phones connect to the hotspot, without a cable?
    2. What I want to understand is; how will other devices get access to the internet connection on a laptop, which is connected through an ethernet cable.
    3. What is a virtual router? Can it work similarly to routers that distribute/share Wi-Fi connections?
    4. Is there no software on the market that may be used to serve as a virtual router?

  4. hotspot wont connect when using ethernet

    Not able to find hotspot while sharing ethernet connection.

    Hi,

    this week i got a new laptop(Acer aspire 7 - A715-42G). In my room, the only way I can connect to internet is via Ethernet cable, so I need to create hotspot to access internet wirelessly with my phone(Realme 6). The hotspot worked well for couple of days, but it changed recently. There might have been a windows update, but I'm not sure. Now, I can turn on the hotspot while I'm connected to ethernet, but my phone can't find it. But when I connect my laptop to WiFi, the hotspot works just fine.

    I tried this with different ethernet connections but got the same results. Otherwise, my ethernet works fine.

    I tried everything listed in the first reply here(reinstalling drivers, checking hotspot settings,...), but nothing changed:

    Redirecting

    I still can't find the hotspot when I'm sharing ethernet connection. (A friend of mine with the same laptop has the same problem)

    Can you please help me?
