In 5s, personal hot spot does not work from time to time. Not detected

In 5s, personal hot spot does not work from time to time. Iphone does not get detected on Wi-fi or bluetooth. Restarting or rebooting does not help.  

Settings, general, reset and reset network settings. Clear out your network settings and set personal hotspot again.
also avoid special characters making a password. hashtags or open brackets for example doesn't work too good.

  • HT1688 My Hot Spot does not work after update to 6.0.1.  Service is with ATT.  Apple says problem is with ATT, ATT says problem is with Apple.  Anyone else having this problem?

    My Hot Spot does not work after update to 6.0.1.  Any suggestions?

    Ok, I had the same issue, my phone is unlocked(iphone 5 with 6.1.3). So I went to the apple store and had it replaced. it worked good for a day and started doing the same thing. When the apple tech replaced my phone, he transfered my screen protector to the new one.
    so I thought it was my sim card, I put in my sisters sim card from a different carrier and it did the same, so then I was like let me take off the screen protector, and that was it.
    so guys, if you have a screen protector on your phone and it's doing "low signal", "No Service", "Searching", "Full bars cycle" then take off the screen protector. so far my phone is working normal.

  • All of a sudden my personal hot spot isn't working. It only comes up with Bluetooth and USB connection options. Why would that be?

  • We traded our home internet service for a Sprint Hot Spot.  The hot spot does not have an ethernet port to connect through.  Can we connect our time capsule to the wireless hot spot?

    Hello, we switched our home internet service from an ethernet modem to a wireless hot spot. 
    Do you know if there is a way to connect our time capsule to the hot spot? 
    Everything I read only suggests connecting through an ethernet cable.  I'm hoping there is a way to do this.
    Any help would be appreciated!
    Thanks!!!

    No you can't join a wireless hotspot with a Time Capsule directly via it's 'join' option (tried and failed - well to be exact it kinda works but the Time Capsule's ethernet ports no longer work).
    What you can do is buy an airport express and use it's 'join' option to connect to the iPhone's hotspot. Then you connect the airport express via ethernet to the time capsule (in bridge-mode).
    You can then connect your computers to the time capsule via ethernet or use it's wireless function to set up wireless network (with a different name to that of the hotspot) that your wifi stuff can connect to.

  • Personal Hot-spot has stopped working for no reason

    I had a perfectly functional Person Hotspot (data tethering) feature with my Vodafone UK connection, and the data tethering plan I had enrolled proved more economical than those regular USB dongles. Recently, I upgraded my vodafone plan to allow for a higher usage - and somehow the person Hotspot just stopped working. Every time I navigate to the Personal Hotspot Button, the tab - which used to read 'Enable Personal Hotspot ON/OFF' - now reads 'Setup Personal Hotspot'. When I click on the link, it directs me to a Vodafone Iphone Advertisement page.
    I contacted Vodafone officials, even personally visited their store and got a confirmation that the data tethering plan is active, and there should be no problem with my iphone's data tethering capability. The best advise they could suggest was to backup and restore the Iphone using Itunes. Well - I tried that as well, and still the problem persists.
    Has anyone faced this problem before? Can anyone help - where exactly can I reset the Hotspot settings, or even enter it manually to get it working? I've tried backup and restore, reset cellular data network, Disable and re-enable 3G,  ejecting and re-inserting Vodafone SIM........  The hotspot was a wonderful feature, would love to get it back.........!!
    Thanks!

    Thanks Dodie.  My personal hotspot just stopped working.  I use it all the time and it was driving me crazy having to connect via usb.
    I have used the reset before and forgot all about it.
    Simple fix, get it got it, good !

  • Does setting up a personal hot spot allow other people to use up your cellular data

    by setting up your own personal hot spot does it allow other people to use up you cellular data?

    Basically yes.  Personal Hotspot means you are sharing out your Cellular Data connection.
    If you give the Hotspot password to someone they will use your Cellular data to access the internet.

  • Hot spot s not visible after latest iOS version update on my iPad please help

    hey personal hot spot is not visible after iOS latest version update on my iPad mini please help

    Hey Devinder from chd,
    For most issues with Personal Hotspot, try out the basic troubleshooting in the article below. It does talk about iPhone but the troubleshooting is the same for your iPad. If you are still having issues, let me know and I can see what else we can do after that. 
    iOS: Troubleshooting Personal Hotspot
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203302
    Basic troubleshooting
    See if your iOS device, computer, and wireless plan all meet the system requirements for Personal Hotspot.
    Make sure Personal Hotspot is on: Tap Settings > Cellular > Personal Hotspot.
    Check the Internet connection on your iOS device: Tap Safari and load a new webpage.
    If one connection type doesn't work, try another. For example, instead of connecting using Wi-Fi, use USB or Bluetooth.
    Turn Personal Hotspot off and on: Tap Settings > Personal Hotspot or Settings > Cellular > Personal Hotspot.
    Install the latest version of iOS.
    Reset your network settings: Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    If you still see the issue, restore the iPhone.
     Take it easy,
    -Norm G. 

  • Personal Hot Spot Won't Turn Off

    I was using my phone as a personal hot spot and all worked great.  Until I wanted to turn the hot spot off.  The slider wouldn't move. I had to do a reset to get it to turn off.  Anyone else had this issue and if so, how did you rsolve it?  I'm on a new iPhone5 with the latest OS.  (upgraded the phone last week from a 4 to the 5)
    Thanks  Sue

    Hey dudes,
    Thanks for both your responses, it always amazes me how fast and reliable this forum is. It's such a saviour, because to be quite honest, and I bet most people on here would agree, that nothing is more distressing then a non-functional mac ... it's just so, what's the word uncharacteristic.
    To answer your questions, I have run software update, got all the updates, including firmware ... but they seemed to do nothing. Oddly enough, when I booted my computer today, to view these posts, the fan hasn't come on yet. Sadly enough the only thing I did was uninstall a 3d-surround plugin-program for itunes. Whether it was actually this causing the problem, or whether it took a couple of boots for the firmware updates to fix the issue, I don't know but my macbook is running cool again, with no fans ... w00t! So to be honest I'm not quite sure what fixed it, but I'll tell you one thing, no more bizarre 3rd party apps for me. If the problem comes back I'll post it on here. Thanks again guys for all your support.

    Hello arcalan.munir,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you are no longer seeing the option for Personal Hotspot on your iPhone. In this situation, Personal Hotspot may not be configured with your carrier. Please use the information in the attached article as a resource.
    iOS: Understanding Personal Hotspot - Apple Support
    Note: If you do not see the option for Personal Hotspot, confirm with your carrier that this feature is supported and your wireless plan is configured for Personal Hotspot. For additional troubleshooting, see this article.
    Cheers,
    Joe

  • HT204023 It doesnt work my personal hot spot

    Why i cant use personal hot spot with both of my iphones it is totally disappeared

    If your cell carrier is not working then you cannot have a hotspot. Did they go out of business?

  • TS2756 hy, does anyone know why my computer doesn't recognise my iphone? I can't seem to make it see the personal hot spot :( any suggestions? thanks

    hy, does anyone know why my computer doesn't recognise my iphone? I can't seem to make it see the personal hot spot any suggestions? thanks

    Did you update to iOS 7? If yes you need to update iTunes on your computer to iTunes 11.1
    If you are using iTunes 11.0 and iOS 6.x then show the left sidebar in iTunes.
    When in iTunes on your computer use the View menu to View Sidebar. The device should show up there when connected.
