iPhone 13 Pro Will Not Connect to openSPOT4 Pro

mjconrad51

HA2NON Thanks. I was able to log on through my iPhone 13 Pro Max following your instructions. I am not sure what finally did it, but I think turning off the Allow Family Sharing fixed it. I cant be positive because I worked on it all day, and when I finally got a signal I was too tired to remember what I did. Now I have to figure out what YSF reflector to use to connect to my Room. I have an HRI-200 at home connected to a Yaesu FTM 400 so I can connect to my wife while I am traveling across country. I can’t figure out (yet) how to key in my Room number so we can talk. Any advice? Thank you.

You can switch servers both using the web interface or using your transceiver. If you use your transceiver, then you can use the Wires-X button menu (https://manuals.sharkrf.com/openspot4/en/wires-x-button.html#page-top), or DTMF codes (see the currently active connector's user manual page for instructions, for ex. https://manuals.sharkrf.com/openspot4/en/ysfreflector-connector.html#page-top).

I have a new iphone SE. my openspot 2 will no longer connect. The settings are all the same on the new phone, not special characters the Maximize Compatibility option is not available in the setting page all software is up to date.

I have followed all the instructions below. I have been doing this for years. never had this issue. I can no longer use the openspot for portable use.

HA2NON Hotspot settings open on the phone:
Turn off the openSPOT4.
Go into Personal Hotspot settings end enable "Allow others to join". Don't leave this settings page!
Turn on the openSPOT4.

Number6 if you cannot set Maximize Compatibility option or you simply don’t have it in your settings, your iPhone will only advertise the mobile sharing feature on 5G wifi network only. The OS4 is running on 2.4G wifi network only.

Number6 none of these suggestion work.

It’s has probably gone for another address, try incrementing the address a few IPs to see if that works. Or even better do a network scan to see what the device has connected as.

I have the iPhone 12 Pro and am able to get openSPOT4 Pro to show up in the Wi-Fi Window but it says (No internet connection) I can't find the save button. I have tried the ideas described so far. I will disable our home internet on Saturday to see if i have got it to work. We tried for hours and my friend's works but tomorrow i will test mine. We did notice that my Blue LED was dim compared to his. Sadly we were not able to use i for our entire trip. I think you should suggest connecting to the HotSpot first, before connecting to home WiFi. I have read the entire manual and still no success. I am only using it on Fusion at this time. Had the unit for 10 months and have used it on the home wifi okay. Thanks de Wa9e.

You can find the instructions on how to setup the openSPOT4 for both home and phone Wi-Fi connections in the user manual at https://manuals.sharkrf.com/openspot4/en/home-and-phone-wifi.html#page-top

After trying so many things eventually got rid of the issue by enabling the personal Hotspot option via the mobile data page. https://thegeekpage.com/cannot-find-personal-hotspot-option-on-iphone-fixed/
