New iPad network setting to allow for Personal Hotspot

[Alwyn Swart]

Anyone know if this is possible on 8ta or MTN... and if so the APN u use?

I got Personal Hotspot working on my new iPad (iPad 3) with Cell C!

Settings -> Cellular Data I put "Internet" as the APN under both the Cellular data and Internet Tethering fields in APN settings.

Settings -> General -> Network -> Personal Hotspot -> Turn on Personal Hotspot.

As a matter of interest, what is listed in your "Carrier" field in Settings->General->About?

It says Carrier 12.0

I managed to get this working on MTN by downloading the Version 11.1 Iphone carrier settings from Apple at:

(Install via Itunes by holding shift/option key and then check for updates).

I lost patience .... so installed Mifi ....

also allows me to use a less hungry Bluetooth... or on demand setting ... well worth it..

You have to jailbreak and purchase Mifi or PDANet or Pirate them, if you know how

I got a new ipad 4 10 days ago. in addition i got a micro sim from 8ta. However are battling to setup the hotspot on my ipad. None of the setup buttons are available? I logged a complaint on hello peter last night. Was very impressed with the response time. However the instructions they have sent me did not work because i did not have the options on my ipad? Their respone on that was: "we just had confirmation that the ipad does not support hotspot". I queried that but since then they have ignored me!!! I have googled for the last week already but get no answer either! Hoping someone on My Broadband can assist me.
