I want to share my laptop wifi with my phone.
I used many ways to make a hotspot(cmmd prmpt and multiple sw's) and did make them , but the phone never connects to any of them , and always stops at "obtaining IP address" .
If I set IP to static , it connects but doesnt work.
I used to think it was my Anti-virus (ESET) which was blocking the access through firewall , but the problem persists even after removing the antivirus
Can it be that it left some settings behind?
**PS:
- I have enabled firewall and allowed the network(hotspot sw) to function
- I have tried connecting after disabling the firewall , still no change.
- I have tried to reset the firewall settings
- I have allowed the sharing of connection in adapter properties.
I am now clueless. please Help if you can
Thanks :)
