Lumia 1520, tethering, bluetooth and wireless networks
Hello, first post and probably a quick answer. Anyway, I use the 1520 to connect to a wireless network.. then use internet sharing via bluetooth, connect my laptop via bluetooth to the phone and can browse the net.. but not on the wireless connection the phone was on, but on the phones 4g/3g data connection. Why cant I use the wireless that the 1520 was connected to? I notice that the wireless is switched off on the phone as soon as I select share, This is only an issue as the wireless security certificate is gash in the travel lodge hotel, my corporate branded laptop wont allow access due to that. im tech savvy and there's no way to fix that. the 1520 will connect and use it, so why cvant i then tether and use that wireless via the phone connected to the laptop via bluethooth? Im gabbling I know.. here's what I do// Conenct the phone to the wireless. Enable sharing via bluetooth, then go to the laptop and connect to the phone (as access point), then browse, it works, but not via the wifi on the phone, that is switched off now but via the data contract.... thanks for reading.
