Look like quite a number of Telco has not activate the
Personal hotspot for the New iPad.

I'm on Digi. My iPhone 4 has hot spot but when use it on new iPad, it doesn't work even after trying out some suggestions I found on the net.

Conclusion:

Maxis: Not supported - broadband, postpaid, prepaid and multi-sim
DiGi: Not supported - broadband, postpaid and prepaid.
UMobile: Supported
Celcom: Not supported - broadband, postpaid and prepaid.

Thx for the inforamtion..save my time on trying each one..

Is there anyone here who is, or have a contact, working in Maxis that can confirm the management has decided, or is deciding for this?

I went to their service center in Sunway, and the fella who I talked to was completely clueless about the missing Personal Hotspot on the new iPad. "If don hav, dun have lor" was his damn reply. I told him already that Apple officially made a statement regarding this and that they need teleco companies confirm with them if they want the Personal Hotspot enabled for their users. The fella keep saying "Got ar? I dunno wor".

Stupid cheap uneducated laborer ...

you should ask manager come out..
anyway, i though digi got ipad plan?

guys, did u guys have onavo app installed? coz onavo is buggy on the latest ios.

Those who want Maxis and Digi to start allowing the iPad to have the personal hotspot, should pay a visit to their service centers or roadshows, and threaten that you would be switching to uMobile if they don't provide it.

I earlier talked to a salesperson a the Maxis roadshow in Low Yat. Told him that I've been with Maxis for 10 years already and I am considering moving to uMobile for their data plan that allows the iPad personal hotspot. Hopefully he would remember to tell that to the sales manager and get Maxis a bit more worried.

Thank you!!!!

Thanks! Solved my query

i already done internet thetering settings also

Hi follow the above settings of one of the member's post. His teaching works!

Maxis couldn't be bothered if u move to uMobile. After all, they have new customers every day.

Followed. but still the same

Ahhh... When will personal hotspot apear

Just wanna ask you all, did you guys face 3G connection problem when you switch from Wifi to 3G?

The only solution is restart your device or reset your network setting(it actually perfoming a restart), and the 3G will work again =_="

everyday i need to restart my device ....sigh....

Mine don have this issue. Urs first four serial is what? Mine is DYTH production month is April.

By the way, wanna ask u guys what is the 3G speed of ur iPad? My maxis can go as high as 7Mbps download speed while my friend iPhone 4smcan only go max 3Mbps download speed on same plan same telco. Why? Is it because of the 4g version ipad3 ?
