Z Fold 6 : Can wifi and mobile hotspot co-exist?

[akash_ark]

I upgraded from Samsung S20 Ultra to Z Fold 6. I never had warnings to turn off wifi everytime I switch on the mobile hotspot. They both were on at times. Is this something no longer supported or do I need to do any Settings change to have Wifi and mobile hotspot ON at the same time?

My S23U won't allow me to turn on mobile hot-spot feature if wifi is activated.

Update. Bit of confusion on my part there. I should point out that I actually meant Bluetooth tethering.

If you usually use Wi-Fi then you don't need Mobile Hot-spot on as that's only if your device isn't able to connect to Wi Fi signal.

@BandOfBrothers  Thanks, you exactly showed how it use to be before. This is exactly how it use to behave in my S20 ultra but not on Fold Z6.  Not sure if there is any settings i need to enable.

I usually let my laptop or kids phones to connect to my mobile hotspot when I am out. Wifi + mobile hotspot worked best as i just need to enable hotspot. Now, everytime I go through a popup asking me to decide on which one to keep, wifi or hotspot

I had the same issue, and randomly just managed to get it working just now. Inset the Hotspot to only use 2.4ghz, and this then allowed me to also have WiFi enabled. I assume there is some limitation in the wifi chipset that the fold 6 uses, I never had this issue with my s23 ultra
