Great
Personal hotspot doesn’t work on iOS 5 GM
It works here. iPad 2 just got onto Personal Hotspot.
On iphone?? Do you think it was an error when installing the update or carrier issue??
From my iPhone 4 to iPad 2. Hmm…not sure. Try reinstalling. Is the option ‘faded’ out or can you turn it on?
Not even there but will reinstall it. I’ll get back to you.
