Personal hotspot missing in iOS 14

After upgrading my XR I have lost ALL personal hotspot options - gone...


I called the ISP and they verified its enabled, rebooted, reset network settings - nothing!


Any ideas?

I had the same problem on my iPad Air 2 and iPad Pro on both iPadOS 14.0 and 14.0.1.


The simple solution was to take out the SIM, wait a few seconds, insert SIM back in, a few seconds more until the network settings were downloaded from the network and that’s it. Personal hotspot is back.

I have tried all of the option listed, restored the phone, network reset, sim card, called Telstra etc etc. I have even tried my sim card in another i phone 11 pro with IOS 14.01 and nothing has fixed hotspot, I also can not send or receive any MMS messages even with MMS on and roaming on..... Any other ideas on how to fix this problem... it is a major issue.
