My hotspot shows up on my IPhone wifi page as pi-star. I open
iPhone hotspot to access the www and I hear nothing on the
radio. If I key up I see the TG on my oled screen. Help I dont
have much hair left.LOL

sounds like you mean shows on wi-fi as pi-star
this means it did not connect to any internet and created its
own Access Point, so you can make changes to it

may be too late for hotspot to look for iphone at this point

try in this order
1. turn on iphone "personal hotspot"
make sure the name and password is no shorter than 7 characters,
no space or !@#$%^ characters
2.stay on that setting page in iphone until the hot spot
connects to iphone
3.turn on hotspot
4. wait until the oled scrolls MMDVM
then you are ready

Step two and three are confusing. How can phone find hot spot
“step 2” before I turn it on ?”step three”

Step 2 refers to watching the hotspot settings in the iPhone
Not the pi-star settings or dashboard

well no luck connecting to Iphone.no IP address shows up on
hotspot screen. Do I need to open a new pi-star page deticated
to this hot spot and config with iphone ssi ? because my hot
spot connects to home wifi no problem. so it is set up for my
wifi at home with wifi ss number on pistar page. I am thinking I
may have to set up hotspot to iphone wifi address. I want this
hotspot for truck use only I have two more hotspots for home.

new pi-star page?
to keep my sanity I re-name my hotspots in settings
ie
pi-star1
pi-star2
pi-star3
and can usually see the dashboard, if I'm on the same network as
the hotspot (ie phone) using a pc not iphone!
HTML http://pi-star2/
that way I know for sure which one I am looking at

you can set them all up for multi wifi access
and on boot up they try to connect to them one at a time from
top to bottom of list
mine checks for phone first (incase I have it on to use)
then home wifi
then alternate wifi source at home in case main is out
then clubhouse wifi
work wifi
etc
this works well for me mobile or home with all my hot spots (7)
I would only do this after you are able to get your iphone
working with the hotspot.
IMPORTANT
be sure all hotspots use different-
frequencies!
DMR ID numbers
ie
xxxxxxx01 to match the name pi-star1
xxxxxxx02 to match the name pi-star2
xxxxxxx03 to match the name pi-star3
