There is no available option for changing the frequncy of hotspot from 5ghz to 2.4ghz in samsung m21. I have a laptop, and is unable to detect the hotsopt at 5ghz. Please update the option in new upcoming updates. Thank you.


Does any one know a 3rd pard app to do so. Or some settings to achive 2.4ghz hotspot.

Try updating the network driver of your PC/ Laptop. Control panel> Hardware and sound> Device manager > Network adapters - here you will get the name of the specific network adapter in your computer. Search for network adapter drivers for your Windows version and manufacturer (hp , Lenovo etc.). Download and install the latest driver available.

The hotspot frequency is already 2.4 ghz. Its a bug in your device which hides hotspot from PCs and wireless lan adapters.
If you still want to change the frequency, download an app called activity launcher

Open the app and search 'hotspot'
Tap 'wifi tether settings activity'
Select the AP band to 2.4 ghz.

Go to Hotspot settings and select Configure..There is an option to select between 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz..Hope this is useful.
