Using airtel hotspot Huawei dongle as WiFi extender

[Sharad]

I recently discovered that my old 4g hotspot device can work as WiFi extender so i tried to connect it to my jio router but for some reason it's not showing jio fibre SSID . All other WiFi SSID are visible except mine on hotspot device

only 2.4ghz will work

I have both the bands on but it isn't detecting either

Even if you have dual band. Dongle support only 2.4ghz single band.
Change channel number in jio ont

manually add your ssid name .

I tried that but it isn't working . I guess it's something to do with jio ans airtel as it isn't detecting any of jio signals nearby

Did you changed :channel number in jio router??

It supports only 5-13 channel numbers.
