I can not connect Apple TV 3 to my iPhone using it as a modem with cellular connection.

Hello,

For some reason I can not connect my Apple TV 3 to IPhone using modem function. The message is the password is incorrect although a did not type in the password. I rebooted device. It did not help. I was trying to use another iPhone and result is the same. It does not let me type any password. Mistake with wrong password pops up in any case.

What should I do to fix it.

Thanks,

Alex

What is your model iPhone? Identify your iPhone model - Apple Support

iPhone 12 or later has a Maximize Compatibility option for hotspot use. Try that, if applicable.


Apple TV list the Other option below the detected network in the neighborhood. Then you’ll have the chance to fill in both the network name and password.
