Hello I have a problem turning on Wifi-Hotspot on my phone in order to share my public mobile internet to my desktop. The "turnon wifi hotspot" option will not enable/highlight on my phone. Can any knowledgeable person please help?

 

Thank you

I have removed the erroneous solution and reassigned it.

Thank you for the great tip 

Can you check for any system updates. Restart. iOS or Android? Reset network settings - unfortunately that blows out saved wifi connections and bluetooth pairings and such.

 

Adding - oh good! Make sure whatever device you connect is told that this is a metered connection. Otherwise it could run away with all your data.

And is data saver on? Can you otherwise browse the internet on cellular/mobile data?
