Dear Sir/Madam,

Looking at previous posts, I see that i need to be directly messaged by a moderator to turn off my public BT wifi hotspot.

Please can someone alert a moderator to my request or if a moderator sees this message please an you DM me?

Many thanks.

No you don't. You can do it yourself via MyBT > Your products > BT WiFi

Thanks for responding, but when I follow your instructions it launches the BT wifi app for connecting to the BT WIFI hotspot when I'm out and about. I want to turn off the BT wifi hotspot that my routing is broadcasting. I had a look around the mybt app and tried getting into the wifi setting section, only to be met with an "oops incorrect admin password" message, despite knowing my password and meticulously entering it. There is a thread I saw from earlier this year where a mod had ro get involved to disable the bt wifi hotspot because it wasn't working through portals.

I was trying via the app, didn't work.

Tried it via browser and found what you described, have opted out.

Thanks
