When there’s no Wi-Fi connection, using your smartphone as a Wi-Fi hotspot or tethering is an easy and practical way to share your internet connection, whether it’s for your own device or with others. Just like Wi-Fi in general, tethering also has a “hotspot name” and requires a password. By default or factory default, the hotspot name is usually set based on the user’s smartphone brand, for example Xiaomi 11T Pro. While the password consists of a long random combination of letters and numbers.
Users may not be comfortable with the default name and password and want to change it. Then how? Each phone brand provides settings for changing the name and password for tethering.
Because each brand of Android smartphone has a different user interface, it is possible to check the Android version differently. But in general, the steps are almost the same.
