How to set up an Iota access point on an Android smartphone

Information for Internet settings can be found on the operator’s website. For residents of Ukraine and clients of some operators, you will only need to fill in the “APN access point” line. For example, to connect to “Kyivstar (Djuice)” you need to specify the address - for subscribers on a contract basis it is “www.kyivstar.net”, for prepaid subscribers “www.ab.kyivstar.net”.

Important! For subscribers of some operators (for example, MTS Ukraine and Life), you only need to enter “internet”.

Problem and methods for solving it

So, let's consider the following situation (since this is exactly what a number of owners of Huawei or Honor smartphones have encountered):

1. There is a Huawei or Honor mobile phone on which the global update EMUI 9.1 is installed.
2. After the update, some owners note that the Internet speed has dropped and the connection itself has become worse. For example, in places where everything was fine before, now everything is not so rosy. The mobile phone has poor network reception.

Naturally, the question arises - what to do? Since access to the Internet is one of the main functions of a modern mobile device.

Enabling mobile internet

If the SIM card you want is selected, lower the notification shade and in the quick access panel click on the “Data transfer” button and, if enabled, turn off the connection to the Wi-Fi network.

If the Internet is working, everything is done correctly, but if not, there may be at least several reasons:

• The mobile Internet service is not connected (or not renewed) in the SIM card;
• there are no means for the mobile Internet on the SIM card (the money has run out);
• the tariff package of gigabytes has ended;
• the Internet connection is not configured correctly;

And if the first three points can be dealt with by executing the USSD command to check the balance (each mobile operator has its own, for example, *100#, *101#, *121#, etc.), then you will have to check the connection settings directly on your mobile device.

What to do if Honor does not see Wi-Fi

There are several recommendations on what to do if Honor does not connect to WiFi and does not see the network. In such circumstances, start with simple checks, and only then reset the settings or make changes to them.

Make sure Wi-Fi is turned on

In a situation where WiFi does not work on Honor 8x, make sure that the wireless network is turned on. Take the following steps:

• Pull down from top to open tool shade. After that, click on the WiFi symbol at the top left.

• Enter “Settings”, go to the WiFi section and move the option toggle switch to the right side.

Here, make sure that your phone sees the wireless network and it appears in the list. If Honor does not receive Wi-Fi even after turning it on, proceed to the next step.

Restart the equipment

In many cases, the cause of failures is errors in the operation of the equipment. As a result, the router stops distributing and the phone stops receiving the Internet. To solve the problem, restart the router. To do this, first turn off the router for 20-30 seconds, and then apply voltage to it. If Honor still does not connect to the Internet, try restarting the mobile device itself.

Change channel

In a situation where Honor does not see the Wi-Fi network, the reason may be the wrong channel selection. As a rule, in Russia the number from 1 to 13 is used. This data is changed in the router parameters. To do this, enter into your browser. 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.0.1, followed by login and password. Typically, the login information is located on the bottom of the router.

The further algorithm of actions depends on the router model:

1. On Tenda, go to “Wireless Network Settings”, and then “Radio Channel”.
2. In TP-Link, go to “Wireless Mode”, and then “Settings ...” and find the “Channel” item.

In other routers the approaches will be identical. After making changes, restart the device and check whether Honor sees Wi-Fi or not.

Check frequency

Modern routers are capable of operating in two frequencies - 2.4 and 5.0 GHz. In this case, if Honor 10i does not see WiFi 5G, the reason may be the incompatibility of the receiving device with this mode. To test, change the frequency to 2.4 GHz. The fact is that many devices are not capable of operating at 5 GHz, and their module does not see or connect to the Wi-Fi network.

Pay attention to the coverage area

It often happens that Honor’s phone does not connect to Wi-Fi due to its great distance from the router. In this case, the signal simply does not reach the mobile device. To solve the problem, move closer or install an additional router as a repeater.

Check if WiFi is turned on

Go to your smartphone settings and see if your device can see the network. If Honor finds other WiFi but not yours, go to the router settings and make sure the sharing option is enabled. For example, Tenda has a toggle switch with which you can turn Wi-Fi transmission on and off. It is located in the wireless settings.

Check the fact of blocking

If WiFi does not work on Honor 9 Lite and another device, look to see if the device is on the black list. Sometimes blocking can be done by MAC address. Also enter the sections “Parental Controls”, “Security”, “Bandwidth Control” and others.

Reset your router

In a situation where Wi-Fi stops turning on on Honor, and the phone itself does not see the network, try resetting the router to factory settings, and then configure it again. To achieve the result, you must press and hold a special button for several seconds. As a rule, it is recessed into the body and is called “Reset”. This nuance can be clarified more precisely in the manufacturer’s instructions. Immediately after this, check whether the smartphone sees the Wi-Fi network or not.

Reset your phone

The last resort way to solve the problem if Wi-Fi on your Honor phone does not connect is to reset the mobile device to factory settings. To do this, just go to “Settings”, and then “System and updates” and “Reset”, where the item of interest is located. Back up important information in advance for quick recovery.

Contact the service center

If nothing helps, and Honor still does not see the Wi-Fi network, the cause may be a failure of the module itself. In this case, the only solution is to contact a service center. The technicians determine the causes of the malfunction and repair the phone. If the device is under warranty, it can be repaired and then replaced free of charge.

Now you know why Honor’s smartphone does not see WiFi, what could cause this problem, and how to solve it. Start by enabling the option, rebooting the device and changing the settings. If this doesn't work, a hard reset may be necessary.
