Unable to setup mobile hotspot in Windows 10 ( earlier it was working) hi Team, I am using a Dell Vostro 3578 with Windows 10 Pro - insider build 20H2 ( 19042.330). One of the most annoying issues to plague uTorrent users is an issue with connectivity. Sometimes, clients like uTorrent get stuck on “connecting to peers” error, where the BitTorrent client cannot connect to other BitTorrent users.

2. Switch the hotspot ‘Off’ and switch it ‘On’ again. Try to connect to it.
