Blackberry Passport Hot spot issue
Hello members
I have a very unique problem which requires a very unique kind of support. I am trying to Hot spot my red unlocked Blackberry passport (not an enterprise subscriber) to my new dell xps 13 (2015) laptop. The dell wireless card is not picking up the hotspot from my phone. But the strange thing is that my Blackberry passport hotspot signal can be picked up by all the laptops with wireless card except for the new dell xps 13. I tried everything possible. I contacted dell technicians and Microsoft technicians. Everyone is clueless as to why this is happening only with the Blackberry passport. If anybody knows or is aware of this issue from any previous threads than can you direct me to it or help me solve this mysterious problem. The dell wireless card in my laptop can be hotspotted to all other phones (windows phone, iphones, androids ) except for Blackberry passport. Please help me out as I am very upset and I have to frequently stop at macdonalds or timhortons to use their wifi on my dell xps and cant use my phone data on my laptop.
Solution, the correct driver Broadcom 802.11ac
Hi,
1. You have to do a system recovery dell to Windows 8.1 (this is my case).
2. You need to remove the driver wifi dell (Manager devices - network cards).
3. Scan for hardware changes - system windows will use the driver 'Broadcom 802.11ac Network adapter'.
I have 6.30.223.102
4. Finished :) hot spot you can see, you can connect and use
best regards, Pawel
