It’s my goddamn motherfucking mobile data and MY PHONE. I should be able to use it however I want. My wifi went down because the greedy, cunt-faced shitbags at Comcast stole taxpayer subsidies to enrich themselves instead of actually providing the service we’re paying for. I tried to switch to a mobile hotspot and my phone refuses to open one. Everyone responsible for this shit should be fed to alligators locked away in a fucking gulag. We have no rights and live in a corporate plutocracy.

    No clue if this will work for you or not, but there are a few things you might try.

    1. Increase the TTL for packets on your computer from 64->65 or from 128->129. It makes it harder for them to tell that the traffic isn’t coming to the phone.
    2. If you can live with USB tethering and also do #1, I have had zero problems. And got much better speeds than with any hotspot.
    3. If the OS is blocking this then… yeah sorry… join the Free World and get a custom ROM.
