    In fact, in the Device Manager there is no Wi-Fi network adapter, but only the ethernet adapter is present. Mobile hotspot can only work if a wi-fi adapter is installed on your computer. As I suggested before, buy and install a compatible wi-fi usb adapter for Windows 10.

    Hi Mercy, for the HotSpot function to be available in Windows 10, your WiFi card must support Hosted Network . . .

    To check this:

    Open Command Prompt (click your Start Button, type cmd and hit Enter:

    Run this command and hit Enter

    netsh wlan show drivers

    On about the 11th line returned from this command, does it state that Hosted Network is supported?
