[QUOTE="kali89, post: 1919231, member: 256541"] this is a BIG problem am having with new MBP... LOTS OF DIFFICULTIES connecting to wifi with iPhone hotspot.. (it's all I have, there's no broadband where I live..) it wouldn't connect, Diagnostics thingie popped, or it would connect and throw me off in a few minutes.. got to chatting with Apple over Twitter.. after lots of back-and-forth they said reset network settings on iPhone.. that worked, but now I find that every time I want to connect, after not having used the computer for a while, I have to reset network settings on the phone.. also, I can't connect at all to wifi on my OLD computer, with hotspot on iPhone, not at all... (have new iPhone also, iPhone 12, with my old iPhone 6 never had a problem with that..) this is very annoying, as have lots of data to transfer from old to new comp, and I also can't connect any flash drive to new computer... I wonder who had the brilliant idea of eliminating USB ports... :-( would appreciate ideas and insights.. thank you very much.. [/QUOTE]
