Q: iPhone needs a power cycle before Peronal Hotspot works
When I try to connect my iPad (or any of my devices) to my iPhone Personal Hotspot via wifi, most of the time I have to first power down my iPhone and restart it.
Although the wifi hotspot is seen by the connecting device, it does not establish the connection. The spinning gear logo carries on but the actual network connect (and hence icon) is never made. After the power cycle, it works perfectly.
I have tried the tips in the troubleshooting guide, resetting network, cycling wifi and hotspot etc. Only the power cycle seems to work.
Any ideas?
iPhone 4S, iOS 6.0.2
