TABLET WI FI DIRECT

Samsung Galaxy 7 to Samsung Galaxy Tab A

Where do I get the password after selecting the network ? Everything is all set to go, but when I select the network to connect my tablet to my phone it asks for a password.  WHAT-WHERE IS THE PASSWORD?

Just to be sure I understand - you are wanting to use the hotspot on your Samsung Galaxy S7 so the tablet can have internet....if that's the case, to find the default (or set up a new one that you can remember) -

Go to Settings, Mobile Hotspot/Tethering, turn it on.  There you should be able to see what the "broadcast" device name is, and the password, and edit the password if you want.

Which device is broadcasting the wifi network you want to connect to?

I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.
