    Hey Owinoc,
    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. […]

  • HT201270 I am unable to use personal hotspot in iPad 3

    I am unable to get the settings as personal hotspot .

    Does your carrier support it on the iPad (even if they support it on the iPhone they don't necessarily also support it on the iPad) ? You may also need to contact them in case it's an extra fee/subscription, and it should initially appear under Settings > General > Network > Personal Hotspot (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4517)

    Assuming you are using OSX, connect iphone ny usb then go to system preferences. Go to network pane and scroll down to "wheel" and from the drop down select service order. If you see the iphone then drag it to the top of the list then select apply.

  • Why can't I connect my iPhone 4 to my iPad 2 using personal hotspot in iPhone 4

    I have iPhone 4, iPhone 5 and iPad 2. Since I use cellular data, sometimes I put one of my sims into iPhone 5 and use personal hotspot to serve as a router. The iPad 2 works perfectly but if I turn on the feature in iPhone 4, neither the iPhone 5 nor the iPad 2 can connect to the iPhone 4. It detects the iPhone 4 but doesn't connect to it. Is there anything I'm missing or is iPhone 4 personal hotspot is not programmed to connect to my other two devices using this feature.

    I cannot use personal hotspot on my iphone 4 after update ios 7.1. Please help me.

    The update may have caused a change in identification for the network. Also, you never answered if the network appears ready on the phone to share. You may have to reset the network, and forget the network on the iPod Touch and the computer before attempting to connect again.

  • Why do I drop my personal hotspot from my iphone to ipad whenever my ipad goes to sleep?

    OK, so I have the new ipad wifi only. Whenever there isn't a wifi signal around, I turn on my Personal hotspot from my iphone and sync internet via Bluetooth. First, the process to recognize pairing always seems to be sporadic. It takes a long time for my ipad to see my iphone's attempt to establish pairing. Most of the time I have to turn both Bluetooth's settings off and then on to establish pairing. Then, once I do gain a connection, if my ipad goes into Auto-Lock after 2 minutes of inactivity, my pairing is lost and I have to start the proess all over again. It's very annoying. Any suggestions would be great appreciated.

  • HT201311 Can I use personal hotspot as wifi to connect AirPrint printer?

    Can I use personal hotspot as wifi to connect AirPrint printer and print?
    Thanks. Appreciate your help.

    Yes, that should work at least temporarily.  Some printers are not constantly looking for WiFi networks, however, so you'll have to make sure the hotspot is setup and active every time you turn your printer on.
