Hotspot Crane VPN connection from Phone to Phone
- This would be ideal UDP, V2ray and Open VPN users.
- A special dedication is offered to Airtel Uganda users who often use Learn From Home Bundles to get free unlimited internet with crane VPN.
- 1 person can buy LFH and hotspot to more 10 devices,
- Lets get started ....
Steps - Parent
- Connect Crane VPN on the parent phone
- Enable tethering from the menu of Crane VPN,
- You will be able to see the Proxy IP of your connection.
- Then Set up Hotspot on the parent phone.
Steps - Child
- Now head to the child phone (device you want to share internet to).
- Enable WiFi,
- You will be able to see the WiFi network you set up from the Parent phone.
- If you connect at this time, it will connect but with no internet.
Steps - Proxy set up
- So we need to add some simple magic to match the proxy IP of the Child device to be same as the one of the Parent.
- Here, we used a Samsung device, your device could have slight changes,
- But,
- Click on the Settings of that very WiFi network we want to connect to,
- Then find Proxy settings,
- Adjust to Manual
- Now, enter the same Proxy IP displayed by Crane VPN on the Parent device
- Also enter the Proxy Port, usually 8080
- And save.
- You can connect to this WiFi network and will have internet with the best speeds of Crane VPN

Please note that Proxy IPs may change when you disconnect and reconnect VPN hence ensure to update them.
While using WiFi (Hotspot) with no VPN, disable Manual proxy IPs, others, your internet will not work
