Hotspot on my ipad

Hello @Johnelrog, we're here to help get your hotspot connected.

Let's look at a few troubleshooting steps you can follow:

• Check that Personal Hotspot is turned on in Settings > Personal Hotspot. Swipe down right from the notification panel and make Personal Hotspot Discoverable.
• Make sure that you have the latest version of iOS.
• On the iPhone or iPad that provides Personal Hotspot, go to Settings > General > Reset, then tap Reset Network Settings. Note: Be advised that resetting network settings will erase all saved Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and connection settings, these connections will have to be added back after the process is completed.
• Restart the iPhone or iPad that provides Personal Hotspot and the other device that needs to connect to Personal Hotspot.
   

Potential reasons why your hotspot may not be working could be either exhausted data or the device you connecting to is not connected to the internet.

Have done everything suggested over and over and over and over again.  Signal good, plenty of data, but hotspot has been gone for a week except for an hour a couple of,days ago

Well, I’m trying to log in but that’s not working either!  I haven’t changed my email or password, so I have no idea what’s wrong now
