When I try to connect my Windows laptop to my phones hotspot. It connects but say connected no internet. I reset the network settings and wiped cached partitions as well as repairing all apps but it still doesn't work. Anyone have any thoughts? It seems to be a Android 11 bug, because my hotspot worked great before the update.

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!

I had the exact same issue and your solution fixed it.

May I ask how you figured this out?

Glad i could help :D, i went the path of Googling for a way to bypass a carriers hotspot throttling and adding the ",dun" was a solution. Tried it out and to my surprise, it worked! Haha 🙂

This worked. How did you ever figure it out? did you download config file for your APN from carrier?

Hi, my apn settings are greyed out and I'm not able to change or add a new apn. Any suggestions? I'm on Sprint/TMobile. TIA

It could be that your carrier has locked it. Are you able to view your current apn, scroll screenshot that entries, take out your sim card, reboot, (with the sim card still out), add a new apn (^ following the steps to add ",dun"), put your sim back in, reboot, and then select the new apn you created?

Dude! This worked! Thanks so much! I was already considering purchasing another phone and getting rid of my Note 20 Ultra because I use a Hotspot for work all the time.
