  • Tutorial - How to auto enable hotspot from the iPhone

jeroent does your service provider allow you to use hotspot data? I just now got done following his tutorial and all worked great.
Sorry didn’t see your post about connecting to other devices

    This is where you reset the network settings (second picture). Try this and let me know the result.

      @MihaiFlorin I found the network settings and restored them, but I'm still experiencing the same issue. I'm giving up; I think I'll be installing a modem in the car soon. Thank you for your help; much appreciated. 😎

      How many connections are allowed on your iphone hotspot and how many are used (previous connections)?
      If your iPhone's DHCP pool is full, it can't hand out a new address to your iPhone.

          surfer63 thanks for your input; I have no idea how to find out how many connections are allowed. I've shared internet via hotspot with multiple devices before.

          Is it correct that the DHCP Pool is cleared when performing a network reset on the iPhone: Go to Settings > General > Transfer or Reset iPhone > Reset > Reset Network Settings

          This is what I tried before and didn't solve the issue sadly. : (

              I reacted from Android perspective. It seems that iphones limit the number of hotspot connections on bandwidth and performance of the iphone. Somewhere between 7-10 simultaneous connections.

              There were issues with carplay on dudu7, which were solved in the latest 3.6 beta. I have no idea whether there is any connection with hotspot for iphone.

                I have exactly the same issue, with latest update (non-Beta) i cant connect to my iPhone XS hotspot, while regular Wifi is working. Also any other device can connect to my iPhone with no issues. https://youtu.be/7OpsvsEFc0U?si=rPRsXVGoleHRdNt9

                  boogiboy Do you have beta iOS? Or do you use Carplay? Carplay and hotspot exclude each other. If you use one, you cannot use the other. Sincerely, since I did this tutorial I never had such problems. It connects in 99 cases out of 100. But I do not use Carplay. There is a 5-6 seconds delay but it connects. Another thing that I can think of is to check if you have Carplay enabled in the BT settings and to disable it.

                      Just to add to this, this is only applicable to wireless CarPlay.

                      You can still use Carplay and hotspot together, but it must be wired CarPlay, it’s my current setup for when I use CarPlay once in a blue moon.

                        MihaiFlorin yes, i’ve tried disconnect CarPlay and even disable that in bluetooth, its still having IP configuration failure, looks like its stuck somewhere in the software on the new update.

                            boogiboy I have the new update. And I don't have these problems. Try first to check if the hotspot is activated on the Android settings. And second thing I would try a factory reset of the DUDU device.
