Creating a mobile hotspot is not supported by HP.

A simple workaround would be to order a USB dual-band wireless dongle and plug it to one of the USB ports of the computer. Then connect it to the router to create a mobile hotspot. This can be ordered at a local Best Buy or Staples store or even via an online portal like Amazon or eBay. It is extremely cost effective and economical and can be procured for a song.

You could google this information on how to create a mobile hotspot.

Thank you for posting on the HP Support Community.

 

I appreciate your efforts to try and resolve the issue. Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, however, to provide an accurate resolution, I need a few more details:

  • Are you getting any error code or message while using the hotspot?
  • Is this first time your trying to use Wifi Hotspot?

While you respond to that, let's try these steps: Use your PC as a mobile hotspot. Select the Start button, then select Settings > Network & Internet > Mobile hotspot. For Share my Internet connection from, choose the Internet connection you want to share. Select Edit > enter a new network name and password > Save.

 

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
