Personal Hotspot on iPad+Cellular

Has anyone been able to set up a personal hotspot on their iPad + Cellular?

If so what are your Network and APN settings etc.

 

There are lots of discussions on how to try to do it but none of them work.  Some have suggested there are two APN's, sp.mb.com for data and LTE and a second for tethering, isp.mb.com but there seems to be no place on an iPad to set two APN's.

 

I am beginning to think it may not be possible on Public Mobile but I hope I am proven wrong.

 

Thanks

I see you have tried it with Android Tablets, have you ever been able to get a hotspot to wik on an iPad?

 

Thanks

WiFi hotspot is allowed and works with the regular sp.mb.com APN.  There is no need to use the alternate APN.  I have tested this on a number of android tablets.  For a couple of my tablets, I had to add dun into the APN type field to make it tethering work.  This is not because of something on the Public Mobile end.  It is a quirk of the hardware.
