- Thread-topic: iOS Tethering - Who To Blame
I wonder if this is really a tethering problem at all. I don't have tethering, but both my and my fiancee's iPhone 4S on AT&T sometimes have trouble connecting to 3G data. The phone will show a good signal but not be able to connect, and the fix is to reboot the phone. I mostly notice it after disconnecting from wifi (but sometimes I disconnect just fine), so I suspect it may be some sort of bad interaction between the wifi and 3G systems.

I pay extra for tethering on my iPhone 4S... and I'm getting really fed up with the random network loss... at first I would think it's ATT, but the only way to get it to work (even though it says connected, blue message, etc) the network drops (even though it is still tethered).
The ONLY way to fix it is to power the phone off and back on.. sometimes it works an hour or two, sometimes a few minutes.
Anyone else having this problem? I personally think it is iOS.. it started with iOS5.
Or better yet, does anyone know of a way to force the phone to reset the tethering daemons? I've done everything from forcing to airplane mode and back, to turning off hotspot... in the hope I could just reset the individual problem, and not wait 3 minutes to reboot it every 30 minutes.
