Hotspot no longer working

[Rozyeee]

I have usually been able to use the hotspot on my phone to connect to the internet and then access VPN. Then, suddenly I could not. The ability was restored with a change in settings but I don't recall what it was.

Welcome to Android Central! Which phone? Are you saying that the same thing happened before, but you can't remember what you did to restore it back then? Does the hotspot turn on at all, but just doesn't allow a connection?
