WHERE IS Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot Settings?!!!!

Poseidon123 — Wed, 26 Mar 2014 08:54:49 GMT

I bought two Xperia C devices, with the original firmware there was no "Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot Settings" under "Tethering & Portable Hotspots" menu. I updated one of them to the last firmware 16.0.B.2.6 but still there's no "Portable Wi-Fi Hotspot Settings".

As you know if you dont access to the Wi-Fi hotsport setting you cannot change the define the Wi-Fi key and the wi-fi hotspot is totally unworkable.

Meanwhile the wi-fi hotspot is working well, when the data is on, you can turn it on and it's also been found by other devices like laptops or mobiles but as you dont have a wi-fi key you cannot use it.

Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.

To access the menu where you can configure your Wi-Fi hotspot, you need to tap at "Portable Wi-Fi hotspot" and you will access a new menu where you can change password and network SSID.

Check the following link and you can find some info about using your device as a protable Wi-Fi hotspot:

Dear Mr. Robot

This is the tenth time I asked this question in many different ways and always get the same answers in a same algorithm!

I'm not a newbie!

I asked Sony GB and they told me this device is not sold in their region so they don't know about this issue.

One more time THERE IS NO WI-FI HOTSPOT SETTING MENU IN THIS PHONE. Not in original Rom not in the last updated Rom.

Thank you all in advance.

By pressing in the following area:

You should end up in the following menu:

But if you don't, I suggest that you send your phone to a service center so a technician can examine your unit. If the phone is not launched in your country, you will need to contact your retailer or send it to a service center from the country where you purchased your unit.
