If the device broadcasting the Personal Hotspot (such as an iPhone or iPad) has poor cellular signal strength, it can affect the stability and performance of the hotspot connection. In such cases, your Mac may struggle to connect or stay connected to the hotspot. This happens because the hotspot relies on a steady cellular data connection to provide internet access. If the source device frequently drops or weakens its mobile signal, the Mac may experience slow speeds, intermittent disconnections, or complete failure to establish a connection. For optimal hotspot use, ensure the broadcasting device has strong network coverage and is positioned where it receives the best signal.
