Hi. In the UK, on O2 network.
Trying to use my phone (S21) as a hotspot for my laptop. Connected via USB cable. In connection settings I go to 'Mobile Hotspot and Tethering' > turn ON 'Mobile Hotspot' > turn on 'USB Tethering'. On my laptop, under Wi-Fi, I can then see my phone. When I select 'Connect', it asks me for a 'Network Security Key (NSK)'.
I have no idea what that is, it isn't anything I can find on my phone, it isn't my home Wi-Fi password. EVERY post I've read about it is incorrect. Does anyone actually know what the NSK is, and why I'm being asked to enter one?

I'm having the same issue when attempting to establish a wifi hotspot connection. Asking for NSK when none has been set to my knowledge
