IPad personal hotspot ,iOS 6.0.1

Dears,
How to make iPad personal hotspot ,iOS 6.0.1..?
As i'm connecting to Internet using mobile 3G network.I don't find any tab for enabling and creating hotspot ..
Thanks
Ashraf

Checked with your carrier to see if they support it on the iPad
If they do support it then you should have a Settings > General > Network > Personal Hotspot option

Can no longer connect iPad Mini 2 to iPhone 6 Personal Hotspot (iOS 8.1.2 on both)

I can no longer connect my iPad Mini 2 w/ iOS 8.1.2 to connect to my iPhone 6 (iOS 8.1.2, Verizon Wireless) running Personal Hotspot.The iPad displays the error "Remote Hotspot Failure - Unable to start personal hotspot "iPhone. However, my Windows 8.1 laptop connects to the iPhone just fine. The iPad connection problem occurs with or without the Windows laptop connected or even turned on.
Both the iPhone and iPad have Bluetooth and WiFi on, and the iPhone has Hotspot active. The iPad shows the iPhone Personal Hotspot on the WiFi Settings page, but throws the error each time i attempt to connect. Additionally, the iPhone shows 1 Connection on Personal Hotspot even though I have no devices connected. I have reset my network settings twice on both the iPhone and iPad.
BTW - I used to be able to connect the iPad to the Hotspot prior to updating to iOS 8.1.2 on both devices.

Forgetting the hotspot on the iPad sent me in the right direction. I now have it working correctly, and seem to have diagnosed the cause.
The cause seems to be that I had connected the iPad to the Hotspot via Bluetooth. Once I figured out how to delete that link, I was finally able to connect to the Hotspot. Here is what I had to do:
On the iPhone:
- Turn on WiFi and Bluetooth
- Turn on Personal Hotspot and change the Hotspot password (this may not have been necessary, but things are now working)
On the iPad:
Reset all network settings:
Settings -> General -> Reset (at bottom of page) -> Reset Network Settings (deletes all known networks and their passwords and restarts the iPad)
Turn on WiFi and Bluetooth (I had found that Bluetooth must be on is necessary in some other research)
DO NOT CONNECT TO THE PERSONAL HOTSPOT USING BLUETOOTH - DON'T GO THERE!
Connect to the Hotspot using WiFi
Settings ->WiFi
- Wait until you see "iPhone" under PERSONAL HOTSPOTS (or maybe CHOOSE A NETWORK)
- Select "iPhone"
- Enter the (new) password that you set on for the PERSONAL HOTSPOT on the iPhone
You should now be connected via WiFi
Bottom line: Unless you have some VERY compelling reason to connect to the Hotspot via Bluetooth, NEVER do it. WiFi speed is multiples that of Bluetooth. With WiFi using Broadband Speedtest over Verizon LTE - 2 bars/dots - I am consistently getting between 15 and 20 Mb download and 3-15 Mb upload. With Bluteooth using the same test, I was getting about 1 Mb maximum upload and download.
I hope this solves the problem for all reading this thread. And thank you ManSinha for the helpful clue.

TS2756 Cannot connect to Personal Hotspot iOS 7 iPhone 4

Hi. I have updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 7. Before, I have no problem in using Personal Hotspot. But after this upgrade, no one can connect to my Personal Hotspot. In my iPad, it keeps trying to connect to the hotspot for a long long time and cannot connect. In my HTC Android, it keeps on "Obtaining IP Adress". In my PC (USB Tethering), it says that the cable is unplugged.
I have several ways to solve this problem (like turn off - turn on mobile data, turn off - turn on iPhone, reset network setting) but nothing changed.
What can I do in this situation? Thanks in advance.

I am not sure I am right. I have iPhone4, iPad3 and iPhone5 of my friend. Both iPhones have already upgrade to iOS7,last update this morning. And my iPad is still using iOS 5.x. The problem is I cannot using USB connect Personal Hotspot from my devices. I think the correct issue may involve with iTunes not the version of iOS. It seems the problem was occurred after I have done update iTunes.
* I used iOS 7 beta and it's ok since I update iTunes ,then I have tried restore my iPhone to iOS 7.0.2.
** I connect iTunes from my Macbook.
*** I have try it on different of iOS.
**** I don't have issue with Personal Hotspot on WiFi but on Bluetooth,I've never used it.
If anyone has any ideas,please let me know.
Thanks

Hey andreas4417,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with Personal Hotspot since upgrading to iOS 7.1. The following resource may provide a solution:
iOS: Troubleshooting Personal Hotspot
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2756
Basic troubleshooting
1. See if your iOS device, computer, and wireless plan all meet the system requirements for Personal Hotspot.
2. Make sure Personal Hotspot is on: Tap Settings > Cellular > Personal Hotspot.
3. Check the Internet connection on your iOS device: Tap Safari and load a new webpage.
4. If one connection type doesn't work, try another. For example, instead of connecting using Wi-Fi, use USB or Bluetooth.
5. Turn Personal Hotspot off and on: Tap Settings > Personal Hotspot or Settings > Cellular > Personal Hotspot.
6. Install the latest version of iOS.
7. Reset your network settings: Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
8. If you still see the issue, restore the iPhone.
If you're still experiencing issues, try the steps below. […]

Depending on the country where you live, some features like FaceTime might not be available for your phone.
Others, like Hotspot, will have to be included into your data plan to be working. Contact your carrier about that.

Which carriers let one use the iPad Air as a Personal Hotspot?

Dear Folks,
I know Verizon does.
But what about ATT, Sprint and TMobile???
I can't figure it out from their websites.
Thanks!

Cannot set up iPhone 4S personal hotspot with Toshiba 940.

I have connected my Toshiba Tecra 940 Windows 7 to iPhone 4S via USB cable and the laptop recognizes the iPhone. Within the iPhone settings, I turn on personal hotspot (previously I have set up a compliant password for this feature). When I go into the Intel wireless proset connection program on the Toshiba, I do not see my iPhone in the display of network devices to select. even when I go into the Windows network connection and sharing Center. I do not see the iPhone listed. Any article or technical paper on this that you know of would be appreciated. Thank you. Carl

In addition contact your carrier if they allow Personal Hot Spot in the plan you subscribe to. You need to input APN Settings
