Hello Maitham-Qatar,


If you are not seeing Personal Hotspot then take a look at the article below and start at step 7. Start with resetting the network settings on your iPad and if that does not work then you will need to restore it. Let me know if this works for you.

Hi guys

don't worry this problem can be fix

trust me

first take backup if you trust me

guys first of all you need to do (reset all content) you device

then reactivate you device on WiFi not with iTunes

and careful it will prompt update carrier settings don't update that

don't update your carrier settings every time it prompt

that's it when you connect your device to iTunes its will ask again on iTunes just cancel it

after that if you don't know where is personal hotspot you have to configure your APN.

goto iOS>settings >cellular>cellular data>scroll down you will see personal hotspot APN type in APN what ever you want and go back to home screen

open settings>cellular>cellular data>and you will see there is personal hotspot

just remember don't update Carrier settings

enjoy
