[FIXED] Vi Hotspot Not Working on Laptop or Other Devices from Vivo Phone – Here's the Solution!

Hey everyone,

Sharing this in case someone else is tearing their hair out like I was.

Issue: My Vi (Vodafone India) mobile data worked perfectly on my Vivo phone, but when I tried sharing the internet via hotspot, USB, or Bluetooth, nothing worked — not on my laptop, not even on another phone. Devices would connect, but show “No Internet.”


❌ What Didn’t Work (Tried ALL of this):​

  • Tried hotspot, USB tethering, Bluetooth tethering — all said "No internet."
  • Even a second phone connected to the hotspot showed "No Internet."
  • Inserted the Vi SIM into a different phone — worked fine there. So the SIM was not the issue.
  • Tried apps: PdaNet+, NetShare (No Root) — no help.
  • Installed HTTP Injector, used various .ehi config files — nothing improved.
  • Attempted to add DUN in APN settings — no DUN option available.
  • Used dial code ##4636## for engineering mode — didn’t help.
  • Did a network reset from:
    Settings > More Settings > Backup & Reset > Network reset — still didn’t work.

✅ What FINALLY Worked:​

Turns out the problem was in the APN protocol settings.

Here’s how I fixed it:

Go to:
Settings → SIM cards → mobile networks → Tap your Vi SIM
→ Tap Access Point Names (APN)
→ Tap the active APN (likely named “Vi Internet”)
→ Tap the edit (pencil) icon

Scroll down and set:

  • APN protocol → IPv6
  • APN roaming protocol → IPv4/IPv6
Save the changes

Toggle mobile data off and back on, or just reboot your phone

And boom — hotspot started working on both my laptop and other devices!


📱 Device:
Vivo


📶 Carrier:
Vi (Vodafone India)



TL;DR:​

If your Vivo + Vi SIM hotspot doesn’t work on a laptop or another phone, go to:

SIM card settings → Your SIM card carrier → APN settings > edit APN → set :-
  • APN protocol: IPv6
  • APN roaming protocol: IPv4/IPv6
That fixed everything instantly for me!

Discussion Pollution Problem in India

India needs to update its national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) to meet WHO guidelines and pave way for better monitoring of the pollution levels, an analysis by the Centre for Research on Energy and Clean Air (CREA) said, pointing to lax guidelines showing cities in positive light despite high levels of pollution.

Exactly. AQI which falls under very severe category in most countries are just moderate or moderately high as per Indian standards. This is must!

Good News Bayern Munich are The Champions of Bundesliga Season 2024-25

Bayern's dominance of Bundesliga makes it competitively inferior even to Scottish league.They pick the best players from their nearest rivals effectively killing them (Wirtz is joining them) and literally makes the league one sided.Bayern's managers are thankfully not judged based on Bundesliga and they have to perform well in CL and that means winning it.Let's see what Kompany can achieve in CL next ssn.
