Add-On > 200mb/5$ > data unusable

[jjnk88]

Hi,

I anticipated going over my data usage this month, so i paid for the 5$ addon.

The only use for data is to tether my tablet. This doesnt work.

My phone browser will use the data still. Odd.

When i tether to my tablet, it says Sign-In.

Goes to a publicmobile url, using a daemon screen, and Server Not Available.

soooo i cant use this addon? and tether?

but i can use this extra data, on my phone.

Phone: BB Passport
Tablet: Amazon Fire10

From gogle....

Navigate to Settings > Network & internet > Hotspot & tethering. Here, you can select to share a connection via Wi-Fi, USB, or Bluetooth. For a Wi-Fi connection, tap Wi-Fi hotspot and toggle it on. The hotspot name will be displayed on this screen.

thats the setting i am using, to tether.

ive changed the password and deleted the wifi config on my tablet as well.

with the regular data in my plan, it worked....

only since i bought the extra 200mb, has it stopped.

Your phone should be able to "hot spot" to be able to use the data on your plan.
