AC600 High Gain Wireless
I purchased the Archer T2U Plus (AC600 High Gain Wireless Dual Band USB Adapter) to create a mobile hotspot in Windows 10. However, I am unable to create the hotspot. Is there any Microsoft patch available to resolve this issue?

Hi,
I've just tested this myself and I got the same result. The Hotspot cannot be used if the computer is connected via a PPPoE connection. It's the same with different Wi-Fi adapters I own and also in Windows 11.
Apparently a PPPoE connection doesn't count against the requirement of "an Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or cellular data connection". I guess only Microsoft would know why.

Hi,
So, your computer currently does indeed have an active "Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or cellular data connection", but Windows 10 tells you it does not?
By which type of connection is your computer connected to another network?

I am currently connected via an Ethernet LAN cable using a PPPoE Broadband Connection. I would like to share my internet traffic from Ethernet and utilize the TP-Link AC600 wireless connection to act as a mobile hotspot. The mobile hotspot should connect with the Steam Deck model 1010.
Despite trying almost everything, I am still unable to activate the mobile hotspot.
