Will the AT&T iPad Mini support Personal Hotspot?

Can't seem to find any literature online confirming or denying whether or not the AT&T iPad Mini will support personal hotspot. Anyone know?

I just finished chatting with an AT&T representative. She typed, "You would have to make your phone a personal hotspot and have your iPad Mini Tethered."
When I pressed further, she replied with standard sales filler,
"The personal hotspot feature on Smartphone provides a way to share your Internet connection with other Wi-Fi capable devices. With this on your account you would be able to create your own hotspot at locations convenient to you. To be able to use this feature you would need to have the 5GB data plan for $50.00 added to your account and the devices that connect to the hotspot would also be using from the 5GB."
and then said that "Currently does not support Personal Hotspot on the iPad Mini."
This is very disappointing, especially as Verizon *does* offer Personal Hotspot for the iPad mini and the Personal Hotspot button does appear in the Cellular Data page. Interestingly, the View Account button now says that my account type does not support the View Account feature and advises me to call for assistance. Hmmm, no way to add additional data from the iPad mini itself? That seems wrong.

    If you’ve lost the personal hotspot feature on your ipad you can visit Apple at https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203302 for full steps on troubleshooting this.

  • Ipad Mini and Personal Hotspot Missing

    Dear all....
    I know there have been many many discussions re this in the past but I can't seem to find a solution anywhere. I have also spoken to EE (my 4G Carrier) and Apple but with no luck....
    I have recently got a new iPad Mini 64Gb Wireless/Cellular device and no matter what I do I can't get the 'Personal Hotspot' to appear on the main setting menu. I have tried the following:-
    Restored the iPad - about 10 times!
    Spoken to EE - they say it is an Apple issue
    Spoken to Apple - they say it is a Carrier issue
    Cleared all Network settings - again about 15 times
    Messed around with LTE settings.... and most other setting too...
    Had the Carrier delete my account (settings) and reset
    Had the carrier change my tariff and reset my iPad to recieve them
    If this helps I also have no "Network" under "Settings>General" like i use to on my iPad 1
    All I do have is "Settings>Mobile Data" and "Settings>Carrier" but neither have any Personal Hotspot setting below them.....
    Finally I have confirmed with my carrier that my account is enabled for teathering / hotspot use and "it should work"
    PLEASE HELP!!

    Just signed up to a data tariff with T-Mobile, pretty much EE!! Was told that I needed to plug the ipad mini into itunes for it to update carrier settings. So far nothing.
    Grrrr. The option was there eariler today when I had another carrier's SIM in the device.
    WOuld really like to get an answer to this too!!!

  • Hi Apple friends, my question is regarding, the last iOS 6.1 upgrade, why it include the LTE 4G to the iPad4 and iPad Mini with Telcel in Mexcio, and Why it was not for the iPhone 5?, when Apple will enable this feature LTE 4G on the Iphone5 to Telcel?

    Hi Apple friends, my question is regarding, the last iOS 6.1 upgrade, why it include the LTE 4G to the iPad4 and iPad Mini with Telcel in Mexcio, and Why it was not for the iPhone 5?, when Apple will enable this feature LTE 4G on the Iphone5 to Telcel?

    And Apple won't tell you. All they will tell you is what countries are supported for LTE right now. You can express your interest to Apple via their feedback pages, if you wish:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
    but you will not receive a reply. It may be waiting on Telcel to approve. They may not feel that their LTE network is robust enough to handle that much load yet. But I'm just guessing. We'll just have to wait and see what develops.

  • How is iOS 8.3 on the 1st gen iPad Mini?

    First off, I almost never update my iOS because I'm always terrified it will make my devices sluggish. And since I can't afford to get the latest and greatest Apple upgrade whenever they release a new one it too adds to my anxiety of upgrading iOS software on my older devices.
    I really couldn't find anything about how performance is on the 1st generation iPad Mini. So I'll give you my specs and preferably if someone has experience with at least the same generation and gb then let me know how the upgrade worked out for you. Especially as far as sluggishness goes. Switching apps, etc. Most likely I'll be directly upgrading to iOS 8.3 since I'm still on iOS 7.1.2.
    iPad Mini (1st generation)
    16gb, wifi only
    Uses: Apps, photos, and web surfing
    Songs: 6, Videos: 1, Photos: 750, Apps: 96
    Capacity: 13.4gb
    Available: 1.1gb
    Version: 7.1.2 (11D257)
    Model: MD531LL/A

    Thank you for using the Apple Support Communities
    I also own a 1st generation iPad Mini and i'll admit iOS 8 doesn't feel as "snappy" as it did with iOS 7. That being said I think it works fine with 8.3 and there has been some major improvements since the first version of iOS 8.

  • What is the difference between IPad mini

    What is the difference between IPad mini& ipod Touch?

    An iPad mini (2nd generation) is, in essence, a scaled down iPad Air. It features a 7.9 inch Retina display with the latest chipset (the A7), which is the fastest for any iOS devices out there. The iPod touch is an iPhone 5c without the phone; it comes in colors, but has a slower chip (A5 chip, found in the iPone 4S, iPad 2). Performance wise, the iPad mini will run smoother.
