Manage WiFi
Advanced users can set up the WiFi radio of the mobile hotspot to meet their WiFi
needs by customizing settings on the mobile hotspot web page.
On the mobile hotspot web page, the following WiFi profiles are available:
•
Default, main WiFi. Share your main WiFi with 2.4 GHz devices that you trust.
•
5 GHz Wi-Fi. Share your main WiFi with 5 GHz devices that you trust.
By default, main WiFi is enabled. If your place of business does not allow WiFi or for
any other reason you want to disable WiFi and use the mobile hotspot only in tethered
mode, the mobile hotspot gives you that option.
Note: Whenever you change WiFi settings, any devices connected to the mobile hotspot
are disconnected and might need to be reconnected.
