I been using an IPhone 13 Mini and am trying to use it as a hotspot and tether to my laptop. Now when I do this, first thing I noticed was the name of the wifi network is IPhone 13 Mini? In the old iphone SE, I always remember it being called Ronnie's IPhone as that is my name. You can change this right? Now the issue here is when I see the default password that is on my IPhone 13 Mini, it uses the character - multiple times. Thus it uses the subtraction sign multiple times in my password. So imagine your default password is joimlkx-sfasfsafsfsd-sfdasd, do you need to enter the character - ? The thing is I tried both with or without and I cannot connect to my network.
With my old iphone SE, I remember I used whatever was the default wifi password given and just entered it once in my laptop and it is saved. But can you change the password? Is it as simple as changing the wi-fi password under personal hotspot on the iphone and that is it? Is there a reason why I cannot connect to my iphone hotspot on my windows laptop?
Also, after you do it, I saw a message on my windows laptop that said
Do you want to all your PC to be discoverable by other PCs and devices on this network?
We recommend allowing this on your home and work networks, but not public ones.
I use my laptop only in my apartment with my home wifi. And sometimes with my iphone hotspot tethering. I do not use public wifi. So would I choose yes or no for this? Is it safer to just choose no?
