Still not having any luck getting my hotspot working. I turned on mobile broadband, entered the data it wants, but when I go to wifi settings, the pinephone doesn't show up in the list.
Is there something else I need to do? I'm befuddled about the relationships of cellular data and wifi.
My data connection is via my phone. I don't have a regular broadband ISP. On my other phone, I turn on cellular data, then I turn on hotspot, and that phone shows up as a wifi point other devices (my laptop) can access.
All the pins to control access in hardware are in "On" position.
I'm pretty sure I'm missing something that is just one big "D'Oh!"
