IPhone Tethering Not Working After iOS 14 Update

I’ve been using DD WRT firmware on my linksys router to tether my iPhone for internet connection and has been working fine until iOS 14 update. Hotspot still works fine for wireless connection but no longer feeds the router network connectivity. Tried resetting router and reinstalling the firmware and reconfiguring. Everything proceeds as normal but router is not live.

iPhone XS, iOS 14

The problem has been fixed for my router.

I use GL.iNET AR750 and the small yellow 300M mini and both now work.

You have to install the last beta firmware update from the manufacturer site.

Their routers are quite cheap and this solution can be useful for who, like me, need this feature for work.
