Hi, I did a factory reset and made sure the firmware was up to date. Today I am having the same problem still. The hotspot restarted itself and disconnected me. It didn't show any messages, other than that it was fully charged and the battery was too hot. I never used to get that message even with it plugged in 24/7. Am I maybe dealing with a bad battery or something?

    Can you try using the devive without battery? If the device shows battey is too hot, that might be the reason the connection got disconnected.
