Abstract

Described embodiments provide systems, methods and computer implemented instructions for resuming virtual computing sessions. A first device detects a disconnection via a primary communication channel from a server hosting a virtual computing session. The first device identifies a second device paired with the first client device. The first device transmits a request to enable a hotspot function of the second client device. The first device receives an indication that the hotspot function of the second client device is enabled. The first device resumes, in communication with the second device, access to the virtual computing session hosted by the server via a secondary communication channel through the hotspot function of the second device.
