Re: [apple-iphone] Hotspot option not always available

Basically the hotspot disappeared tonight when I had LTE access and 4 bars.

So I went into Setting; Cellular; Cellular Data Network and aw that
Cellular Data: APN = fast.t-mobile.com

LTE Setup (optional): APN =

MMS: APN = fast.t-mobile.com

I then set
APN = fast.t-mobile.com

for LTE Setup and my hotspot re-appeared. Problem solved unless it re-occurs under different conditions.

Calm down, Jim. He is sharing a related experience with a hotspot device from the cellular provider.

Since you can't remove the battery from the iPhone, I would cycle the power. But I would think reseting the network settings would do the same.

But I think that it really an issue with T-Mobile and I would suggest the OP call T-Mobile. If it is not a service failure, I would guess they will tell him to reset the network settings.

We're discussing iPhones here.
Tell us how you took the battery out.

Also. I used to plug it into my USB on laptop to keep it charged. Apparently they stopped the hotspot from working as well.

One of the 3 no rmal ways of USING a hotspot with an iPhone is by connecting the iPhone to the computer with a USB cable. (The others are Wifi and Bluetooth.)
