I have a Bluesound Node 2 however the accommodation I am in currently does not have internet connectivity.  I am trying to connect the Bluesound to my Samsung S10 phone which advertises itself as a mobile hotspot, however setup does not see my access point network nor can I manually enter the SSID and key.  Is there any way to connect to my Samsung S10 so I would be able to stream from the Node 2 via the phones internet?

  Hello Mark,
  
  After testing this on my own Samsung phone it appears that this will not be possible. While the Node 2 is connected to your phone's hotspot, your phone itself will not be connected to this same wireless network and will not be able to communicate with the Node 2.

  With the Node 2 being designed to connect to a home network the only workaround I can suggest would be to connect your phone to your Node 2 over Bluetooth or directly with an analog connection to stream content from your phone to the Node 2.
