Initializing Mobile Hotspot using bluetooth C#

Question

I need to create a service that starts a mobile hotspot using bluetooth. I've found the code to create a hotspot service, but this creates a hotspot with the Ethernet adapter.

I've read the documentation and can't find anything to specify bluetooth like in the settings UI.

This is the code to initialize the hotspot with the Ethernet adapter.

var connectionProfile = Windows.Networking.Connectivity.NetworkInformation.GetInternetConnectionProfile();
var tetheringManager = Windows.Networking.NetworkOperators.NetworkOperatorTetheringManager.CreateFromConnectionProfile(connectionProfile);

The problem with this is that the network is shared through WiFi, and not Bluetooth.

Here are my current connections:

My OS were unfortiunately installed in Norwegian, but the display should look familiar in English.

Answer 1

GetConnectionProfiles returns a IReadOnlyList of ConnectionProfile . You can then try to select a specific profile from the list to operate on, instead of using the default one you have in your snippet.
