Can I make the Nexus 6p a hotspot

[AC Question]

Will I be able to make the Nexus 6p a hotspot? Or is this based on my mobile carrier?

The phone is capable of doing this but it can depend on the carrier too.

i bought the unlocked Nexus 6P but as a Cricket subscriber, i cannot. it shows an "Authentication in progress..." pop-up then the message "To enable portable Wi-Fi hotspot on this device, go to att.com/mywireless or dial 611". i called the Google Play Help Center but they couldn't help. this is a bummer.
