I've been on ST for about a year with my Nexus 5 (currently running KitKat). I've been tethering very lightly (0 - 50meg per month) for about 8 months. Outside of tethering, my data usage is also very light (about 300mg per month). In that sense, I'd like to think that I'm a great customer for them.
About a week ago the tethering stopped working. I can connect, and it appears to 'see' the web pages, but it downloads just a few bytes (literally) and then stops. Previous download speeds have been useable, and as long as it is even remotely useable, I don't really care too much about speed.
The devices I'm working on (two different laptops) both connect to my home wi-fi without problem.
I've tried temporarily disabling my anti-virus to see if there was a conflict there and it did not appear to make a difference.
I know that tethering is technically against their TOS, but others seemed to make it work, and I also used it successfully for about eight months. With my extremely light data usage, I hope they won't complain. I've never received any warnings.
