3. Touch Mobile Hotspot settings -> Configure Mobile Hotspot to change hotspot security and
configuration settings:
• Network SSID—Enter a unique name for your hotspot
• Security—Select the type of security you want, and touch Save: WEP, WPA, or WPA2. Enter
a unique password. Other users can access your Wi-Fi hotspot only if they enter the correct
password.
Note: Keep it secure. To protect your phone and hotspot from unauthorized access, it is
strongly recommended that you set up hotspot Security (WPA2 is the most secure), including
password.

different channels after your hotspot is active for a time.

entering the correct Wireless password.
