Personal hotspot not working on beta 3 now?

[sdfd504]

I haven't tried to use the personal hotspot feature on iSO 5 beta 3 until today and now it doesn't work. I had no problems using it on beta 2 but when you turn it on and connect your computer to it now it takes the feature away? Does it have something to do with Verizon's new tethering plans or is the feature just turned off now?

I bet during the betas the carriers have simply figured out how to update their carrier profiles to work with ios5.

You had to know it was coming...

Yeah, I have vzw as well, they seemed to have figured it out! Dammnit! I was enjoying a little free Internet on the ole MacBook!!

Ok I guess its good I'm not the only one but I sure do miss the feature. Oh well I guess I'll have to start paying for it now.

Sounds like it's just a verizon problem.

Since beta 4 my hot spot has stopped working on AT&T, it's there but nothing can connect to it

Not even with a cable or bluetooth? The release notes imply only WiFi doesn't work...

Beta 4 killed my personal hotspot too

 

[Littleman]

Yeah. Gutted as I pay O2 extra money to tether and now it's useless. Like you say, it turns on, it just doesn't connect to anything
Any solution to this?

Personal hotspot has to be paid for in order for it to work. Be happy you got it for free during two betas.

You have two options: Pay for it, or jailbreak.
