Did anyone else realize that iOS 5 GM is missing the hotspot option in settings. I can't seem to find it anywhere, but throughout the beta I had it. Does anyone know where it went or what the reasoning may be?:confused:
 
Hey man, I have the Personal Hotspot feature on my iOS upgraded phone. You may want to call and make sure it's still part of your data plan.

Reset your network settings. I had the same problem.
 
It's there, just may have to reset the network settings. At least that is what I had to do to have it appear and work as needed.
 
Ok, two resets of network settings and a hard reset later and nothing. Maybe a restore is in order. Never had any issues like this before.

Settings
-general
-network
-personal hotspot = on

It took me 2 resets as well, then I had to do the steps above.
