Re: FYI tethering does not work (for me or the store rep's personal droid turbo)

My hotspot started working last night. Tried it again this morning and still works. Looks like they are figuring out the problem.

I tried tethering via USB and hot spot tonight, worked like a freaking charm.

Pardon my ignorance on this matter. I've been using FoxFi/PDAnet since the OG Droid days so I'm a little confused about the Verizon mobile hotspot works. Do you have to pay a monthly installment to use it?

I'm debating on the Droid Turbo or Nexus 9 but I have to be able to use my unlimited data to tether the Nexus 7 in my car, hopefully free. I wonder if FoxFi works on the N9..

If you have Unlimited Data, you have to pay $30 a month.

Read my comment at the end of this thread (I can't post the link, but hopefully this works):
forums. androidcentral. com/ verizon/ 453252-can-i-use-hotspot-my-unlimited-data-plan.html#post4009931

I pay for Verizon's hotspot, but only for the days I use it. I don't want to risk losing my Unlimited Plan, so I play by the rules.
Verizon prorates features when you add and remove them. Seems like many people don't realize that.

I suppose this doesn't help much though if you plan to use the hotspot all month. Then you are stuck with the $30 or using a tethering app.

do you think we will ever be able to tether?

Tethering is very important to me. I have unlimited data. Do you think the Turbo will ever be able to do this? My brother in law just got the note 4 last night and he has already worked or it on his. He had unlimited data. I'm tired of carrying around two phones. The note 4 will let me carry one phone but I do love the droid turbo.

What do you guys think? Was the Maxx ever able to tether for unlimited data users

Looks like tethering works. Just subscribe to it. It's $30/month and you should see it as an feature option.

Will this use my unlimited data or will I be using a different set of data? Will I be restricted to 2gb or something
