I have had this problem of hotspot connectivity between laptop and mobile internet again. Now, a friend of me has recommended me to download and install certain softwares. I am busy with that, and things are taking much more time than expected. As a result, other works are getting postponed. I hope things get back to desired state in a day or two. One can do a few things, in limited way on a mobile using Internet. Yet a laptop and good internet connection is a must for heavy duty long duration work. Have a great Sunday all of you!

@amitkokiladitya good so far. However, I would need to keep my system optimized and in fine working order.

@skysnap I had planned to install Windows 10. However as my available system RAM is just 4GB and I don't plan to upgrade RAM, I have got Windows 7 installed, which is better to use than Windows 8 and does not consume as many resources as Win 10.

@skysnap yes at least 8GB is required and Windows 10 has many default Background Processes.

@allknowing you will have to do a little bit configuration on your laptop or PC.

I think it takes time if you are installing Windows 10. It would be better if the device is directly connected to DSL.

I earlier used to have a dongle connection, but that company was acquired by someone. Since last one and a half year, I have been mainly using mobile hotspot.

Hope you get that sorted out as fast as possible. I hate it whenever I need to fix up something to make my laptop work better. But one has to do what one has to do.

For all technical issues, I look to my husband and elder daughter to help. I am a naive. Hope things are fixed soon.

@arunima25 I can understand. I had to adjust laptop startup settings (BIOS) and had to take a friend's help.
