delete the hotspot from your computer and xbox and re-add it.

Xbox does not remeber more than one wi fi connection at a time and is curently on my home wi fi. Plus it does not show up in my wi fi list when i search for wi fi connections on both of them. Crying_Face

That's what I thought, there's nothing wrong with your phone, now, could you check your computer wifi/network settings > forget hotspot > restart the computer > scan for it > add it > report back.

One laptop picks it up but the xbox and other laptop still does not see the hotspot. Problem is i mostly use it on the xbox and the laptop thats not picking it up.
