I use my phone to provide a hotspot which tends to work but often stops

yet acquired the discipline to recheck the hotspot funcionality after
every settings change so I wonder if anyone can suggest of short list of
those most likely to monkeywrench my efforts. As far as I'm concerned if
anything has made the hotspot (or any other optional feature) unusable
then that switch should be ghosted, something I have never seen it do.

  The one which bit me was an unexpected data limit, specifically for
the hotspot.

  As you have a Sumsung - *always* mention your brand, model and Android
version -, I probably can give you somewhat specific instructions:

  Settings -> Connections -> Mobile Hotspot and Thethering -> Mobile
Hotspot -> Configure -> Advanced -> Set mobile data limit

  HTH.
