That's a huge difference between devices (to me). 1 week later, it was restored and 2 weeks after that Verizon called me to make sure my service problem had been resolved, so they could report back to the FCC. If you are on a Nationwide plan it is blocked unless you pay 30/mo extra for MHS. If you are on More Everything plan, it is not blocked. Verizon blocks it based on your data plan. Verizon does not block tethering on tablets, 4G LTE modems and MiFi devices when you have UDP like they do with phones. I filed a complaint with the FCC (as did many others). But I don't see the need for PDAnet/FoxFi at all. Once, years ago, Verizon interrupted my hotspot service. Information is spotty and work arounds are sparse.

FoxFi doesn't publish anything and Verizon is silent about its actions. There's no official information about these outages. We have to endure a few days of panic and work-arounds until it miraculously starts working again. That's because Apple is a CLOSED source system and the device is sold complete as hardware and software. Every so often Verizon changes something that kills FoxFi. If you jailbreak your iphone, Verizon can legally end your service OR charge you for your illegal use of the hotspot services. Unlike past FoxFi outages - this did not seem to be triggered by a new OS update or security patch, and it was impacting way more than just a few phone models. Please refer to PdaNet instead for alternative solutions. If you want to use iPhone on Verzion as a hotspot, you HAVE to pay for the privilege monthly AND you have to sign a new contract which means you lose your unlimited data plan (if you have one). Beginning November 20th, Verizon customers using FoxFi found themselves unable to share their connection - and online forums began to fill with complaints and outrage. Android 7.0 (Nougat) or later no longer allows the old WiFi Hotspot mode even for Verizon phones. This is about how to fix your straight talk wireless mobile hotspot tethering. In essence, I could run the enitire house's internet through my cellphone for no cost. So I thought if I get a verizon compatible hotspot and use a Straight. My Android is open source, meaning I can use it as a wifi hotspot, they cannot stop it AND I get to keep my unlimited data plan.
