Personal hotspot

Hello ! This is my first iPhone, so I don’t know for sure whether it should work like that or not.

I turn on the modem mode with wifi. Next, I connect the laptop to the phone via wifi. For a while, everything works well. But then the laptop disconnects and the iPhone cannot be found. At the same time, the modem mode is switched on and Wi-Fi is turned on. In order for the laptop to find the iPhone again, you need to restart the modem and Wi-Fi mode. Then I can connect again. Connection lasts differently, maybe 10 minutes, maybe 1 hour. This problem is not in the laptop (try to turn on the modem mode on Samsung, everything worked stably well).

What should I set up in my iPhone?

iPhone XR, iOS 13

To save battery power, the iPhone will shut down Wi-Fi, if it is not being charged while using the hotspot option.
