iPhone Personal Hotspot Unable to Connect to Sync

[F150ROD]

It’s been a couple of weeks, since OTA ECG-24.2.5.6.1. The personal hotspot has not been able to connect. On my iPhone I see the green link icon but on Sync it always displays Unable to connect. Has anyone else had this issue?

Sorry for the dumb question, but why do you need a hotspot in your truck which has a modem?

For WiFi to watch YT.

Gotcha!
TV or the app on Sync?

App on Sync. Only other choice is paying $10 to AT&T and there are not enough features to do that.

I know some people have purchased an android box that allows them to watch other things like Netflix or YouTube TV. I usually just watch it on my iphone if I need to, but the big screen would be nice. Also, I have not tried to hook up my hotspot to the truck. Sorry.

Try disconnecting the projection SSID used for Carplay / Android Auto.
Activate phones data sharing function
Connect the trucks wifi receiver to your phones broadcasting SSID.
That should get the Sync YouTube entertainment app. working.
