Samsung Android natively don't route mobile hotspot traffic through a VPN. Only way to share your VPN thru your S24 hotspot is to root an Android to make it work. Because that is the only way to modify the required settings on a phone to allow VPN traffic to go through a VPN. Coulr you please fix this for S24 ASAP?

And are you 100% sure about that? Because I contacted Nord VPN support and they gave me oficial answer that on Android it is not possible.

Hold on, I am confused

I have nord on my laptop connected to my hot-spot on phone.

Nord directly on my phone when I am connected to public WiFi or hotel

I think you are trying to put vpn on your phone and then connect it to your laptop via hotspot? I am correct, if yes you can't do that I think, but haven't tried it to be honest, could try later

What I am trying to do, is VPN hotspot from my S24. So what ever will connect to this S24 hotspot will go through VPN. But what is happening now, is that when I turn VPN nad hotstopon ON - on my S24, S24 is VPN connected but all other devices connected to that hotspot are not VPN connected

Mayeb it can't do that, I have always ran vpn connections on the actually devices as opposed to phone acting as hotspot with vpn

I'm trying to do the same, but it doesn't work. The connections originating in the phone itself goes through the vpn, but the connections originating in the devices connected to the hotspot, doesn't. Curiously, I used a app once called Speedfy/Connectify, that kind of works as I vpn, and I was under the impression that the connections from the devices coming from the hotspot went through the Speedify server.  Maybe is something related to the NordVpn vpn protocol. I don't really understand the details...
