Mobile hotspot connects, but Internet dosen't work.

Post by Shijune »

Hello, my iPhone SE has been great with the hotspot USB connection for Internet.
However, after that iPhone update around 2 months ago, challenges have arrived.
The USB hotspot is connected with the status:
Ethernet Network (Apple iPhone)
Wired connection 2 (in bold).

The above used to mean working internet, however no internet.

I then use the Wi-Fi hotspot which provides Internet, however often drops out.
I then have to turn off the iPhone hotspot, turn on, then after some clicking around on the LinuxMint Network Wi-Fi icon, it connects.
It's so interrupting and disruptive.
Any suggestions please?
