IPhone X Personal Hotspot Disconnecting and Other Issues
I see lots of posts with this same question over the last year, and no resolutions.
My iPhone X personal hotspot disconnects reliably every 5 minutes or so. I have tried everything and spent countless hours trying to stay connected. The Apple-provided FAQs and help content do not address the issue.
Additionally, I notice that sometimes when I turn the hotspot off and back on, that my hotspot password shows a hex password that I did not enter, despite my having set a custom password many times. Eventually, that incorrect hex password is replaced by my custom password automatically, but this seems like a bug.
Last, when my kids try to connect to my personal hotspot, I get a message on my iPhone X asking me to authorize sharing the password. I say yes each time, but they are unable to connect (they could on my iPhone 8 with no issues). Again, we have spent hours trying to get their devices to connect with no success.
I am on the latest version of iOS. Help?
