    Hotspot over LTE cannot be activated / message: To share your connecti


    Hello forum,

    I'm new here and currently having a problem with my Windows 10 LTSC 2019 / 1809 Tablet PC.
    The point is to provide a HotSpot on the device, with the Internet connection running via the internal LTE / SIM card.
    The Internet connection via the LTE / SIM card works without problems, i.e. surfing is possible as normal.

    But if I want to activate the mobile HotSpot it doesn't work with the message "To share your connection, you need to add this feature to your cellular data plan first". I have already spoken to my provider and checked the APN data, which are entered correctly so far.
    When I switch the Internet connection from LTE to WIFI, the HotSpot can be activated and used again.

    Does anyone have any idea whether there are even deeper Windows settings that you have to activate first in order to make a HotSpot usable via LTE?

    Regards

    :)

    Really Cheap Unlimited 4G LTE Sprint Hotspot

    Hi,

    Last year I spent $500 to get a Sprint network 4G LTE hotspot (Franklin R850), which included a year's unlimited internet, through the Calyx Institute, which also has a tax deductible deal. Without FIOS and suffering with 2.5mbps DSL, the 20mbps hotspot seemed like a bargain.

    I also found 4G community, which offers the same deal, for $250 yearly.

    Then, I found a deal out of Minnesota, PCs for People, which offers $10/month unlimited 4G LTE service for those who are disabled or otherwise qualify. I sent ahead and got a second hotspot (Franklin R850) with the same Sprint service.

    I live a mile line of sight from the tower, and get 2 bars downstairs, 3 bars upstairs, in a house with a concrete shingled roof, plaster walls. The Franklin hotspot does not have an external antenna connector, so I am looking for a 4G router/gateway with external antenna(s) to improve the signal. Not sure what to get.
