It is not an issue with not being able to use the feature, but rather it simply does not work. Does anyone else face a similar situation? Is there a fix to it? I am using T-Mobile BTW.
Try reboot first, there is a system bug that shuts WiFi down after tethering. Maybe this is what you experienced.

If you have ad-hac, you can remove SpotOn. SpotOn and ad-hac do the same thing, just that ad-hac put itself into system initialization routine so you don't need to unlock every time you want to do hotspot.
