Link?

 

I never had any problems with my good old Galaxy S3 and tethering.

 

Which is rather sad they have to go with 128K like that. I would think 1mbps would be nice but fat chance on that.

 

Actually 128k is 1mbps.

Difference between Mbps and MB/s (internet speed) Mbps means megabits per second while MB/s means megaBYTES per second. There are eight bits in a byte, so a megabit is eight times smaller than a megabyte.

 

Thanks for the explanation there. I suppose I should've said 1 MB/s then.

 

You need root, the $60 metro plan and PDAnet / foxfi apk. I read about it on XDA when I had the stylo.. I've been getting texts about changes to metro tethering and data policy. I didn't read them but maybe it will now work with the $30 plan. PDAnet uses your data plan, not the tether plan. Also the $30 plan LTE data gets capped at 2/3gb but the $60 is unlimited LTE ( unless you tether without PDAnet). This is the part where i thing you need root. When you use PDAnet to turn on the hotspot, the stock hotspot activate along side it. You need to go into your settings and turn off the system hotspot. PDAnet should still be on in the background until you turn it off through PDAnet. I've read of people getting 500+GB tethering with this method.. don't know of any other working method.

Thanks!

 

How sad.

 

Would a PC be required for all tethering methods suggested ?

 

I'd appreciate the info on how to do it, thx.

I need help with that answer. I just upgraded to the $60 plan and I also have the FoxFi however, it's using my plans hotspot and now I'm already almost out of my hotspot data. Please help. Thanks in advance.

 

I did this and it kicked me down to regular 4G

 

Hi. Would you mind sending me steps to bypassing hotspot restrictions using FoxFi & changing APN, please. I've been using pdanet/FoxFi for past 4 years with phones in past. Now have ZTE ZMAX pro and need to tether for internet on notebook for my job. I'm at a loss and on the verge of losing job if don't catch up on work. I live out in the country in Texas, it costs about $300 to get internet out here. I can't afford that, struggling as is. Thank you in advance with any help you can send me.

 

step #1 read the person above your post.. he has a link

 

find a program for your pc called cyber ghost. It has been working great for me, it even makes my hotspot much faster.

 

Can you help me do this

 

Right keep in touch
