Connecting Loona to a mobile phone hotspot

[Chris]

Anyone have success with this?

It wouldn’t connect for me. Kept saying failed despite my enabling my personal hotspot on an iPhone.

Documented the steps in case it helps others.

1. Connecting Loona to mobile phone hotspot. Select reset wifi for Loona to right when connected to existing Wifi.

Whenever I turn on the hotspot, the Wi-Fi disconnects automatically. It seems like Wi-Fi and hotspot can't work at the same time. I'm not sure if this is a built-in limitation or if there's a way to make it work.

Has anyone figured out how to keep both Wi-Fi and hotspot active together? Any suggestions or workarounds would be really helpful.

Thanks in advance!
