iPhone hotspot “bad password”

[Baldjohn]

Hi, every time I try to connect to my iPhone X’s hotspot I get a pop up in the bottom right saying network connection error, bad password. This is driving me crazy as I literally have the password in front of me. Does anyone know a way to resolve this? I’ve tried doing a hardware reset to no avail. Thanks in advance

Thank you for posting on HP Support Community.

Don't worry as I'll be glad to help, I have a few troubleshooting steps we could try to fix the issue:  

• On the device that you want to connect, go to Settings > Wi-Fi and look for your iPhone or iPad in the list. Then tap the Wi-Fi network to join. If asked, enter the password for your Personal Hotspot.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.

Thank you for posting back.

use the following steps:

1. On your phone, turn on Bluetooth.
2. On your Chromebook, at the bottom right, select the time.
3. Select your Wi-Fi network or No network .
4. Under "Mobile data," select your phone.
5. When you see "Connected" under your phone's name, your phone is sharing its data connection with your Chromebook.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted for further assistance.
