Windows 8 - Bluetooth internet cause crash

Question

Simple to simulate:

configure iphone as hotspot

itunes should be install

search for new device and add iphone

connect to access

internet will be on and browsing will work, though once you go to google.com and start typing to search anything system request for crash (normal browsing works just fine for a while than system crashes anyway)

Answer 1

First mistake. You used an iPhone. Should've used a windows phone. Just kidding. I have nothing to contribute towards answering this question, however I wanted to mention I have heard several people at work describe this same issue when using their iPhone as a hotspot. Those people have never heard of the windows developer preview. One uses Vista and the other uses windows 7. The issue is apparently not exclusive to WDP.

Answer 2

It would be best to post this question in the Apple iPhone forums.
https://discussions.apple.com/community/iphone

They would be best able to address this issue.


Thanks,

Answer 3

what makes you think its iphone issue?

Same tablet running windows 7 doesn't crash with same simulation, i use iphone hotspot on all other devices without any issues...

such simple steps, have you even tried simulating it with windows mango hotspot?

Answer 4

Since this is a pre-Beta product, I would not know if iPhone was compatible as a hot spot with Windows Developer Preview.
So I suggested you post in the iPhone forums for assistance.
