Are you looking in general. Settings. Network??

Should look like this.

Thanks for the message... on my screen instead 'Set Up Personal Hotspot' I have 'Cellular Data Network'... it seems that something went wrong during the update...
 
i dont get that hotspot in the options, i wonder if your carrier has to enable it
 
I've updated the 3GS and it has it. Not updated the 4G yet.

I believe you can tether three devices it's up to the carrier to enable the other two...
 
It might be carrier specific. I don't have the plan however. When I click on that button, it prompts me to change my plan to the tethered one, which would cause me to lose unlimited. That I could never do.

With AT&T you need to change your plan so that it includes tethering. Then the hotspot feature will work.
 
Thanks guys...
It seems that it is a carrier issue... I talked to them and they told me that this is a paying service... although they told me that they direct competitor has this option for a one time unblocking fee... My carrier is Vodafone Romania... They also told me they'll look into this and probably they will offering this service soon...
Thanks again... I thought there is something wrong with my iPhone4...
Best thoughts,

mine personal HotSpot option keeps circling, i cant even click on it. I have att
 
Been playing around with the hotspot feature last night. The reason why it wasn't showing up on my 4G was because I was connected to wifi. It seems to turn off as soon as you connect to a wifi signal.

Both the 3GS and the 4G can tether wirelessly to my iPod. I picks it up just like it was on a normal wifi signal. Can even use FaceTime and download apps over 20mb. Seems the 3 network here in the uk has it turned on automatically with the standard data plan...
 
When you go back to 3G does the icon next to Hotspot keeps circling around?
