    Vague.  Tell us exactly what you did and exactly what happened, along with what iOS you apdated from, your cannier, and any troubleshooting steps you took.

    Thnx a lot for your help. I can now see my iPhone on the network tray (win07). However, it's returning a msg "Limited access" thus I can't open any site.

    I've diagnosed the problem on the window by clicking a diagnose button, but no help.

    Pls assist. Thnx

    Try the following.. Worked for me...

     

    Go to Settings->Cellular->Cellular Data Network->Personal Hotspot

     

    Add your APN settings here also

    I was having this problem (iphone 5 wouldn't work as hotspot for my PC laptop) and had tried everything suggested on these message boards, so I finally went to the Apple Genius Bar and they fixed it for me.  Here's what they did:

    1) Turned the Hotspot off on my iphone

    2) Went to the Control Panel on my laptop to "Network and Internet" > "Network and Sharing Center" > "Manage Wireless Networks" (on the left navigation panel) and deleted my iphone from the list of WiFi connections I've attempted.

    3) Flipped the manual WiFi switch on my laptop to Off and then back On again (to reset it)

    4) Turned the Hotspot on my iphone back on

     

    After that, when I tried to connect, it worked.  Hope this works for someone else.

    >>>Go to Settings->Cellular->Cellular Data Network->Personal Hotspot

    Under "Settings->Cellular" I have no "Cellular Data Network" option.  I wonder if this is carrier-specific.  I have AT&T.

    what you need to do is Delete the network [iphone]  name on the computer by going ionto 'manage wireless connections' and removing the network name.

    after which restart the personal hotspot on the device and then search for it opn yuour pc. it should then prompt you to enter the wifi password.

    hope this helps
