I am trying to enable my the hotspot from my iPhone 6. I am in the beta program (if that matters).
I am on Verizon.
Whenever I press, "Set Up Personal Hotspot" it brings up this message,
"To enable Personal Hotspot on this account, visit https://mobile.vzw.com/hybridClient/mvm/hotspot"
My brother is on the same plan, and his works great. Same iPhone. Meaning our Verizon account is set up for hotspots. (Also, I checked on our account settings, and it is enabled.)
I already rebooted the phone, and reset network settings.
Any ideas why it won't turn on a hotspot?

Apparently back when I had a flip phone I had asked that data usage be turned off. (So that I wouldn’t accidentally get charged when I pressed the “internet” button.)
One of those switches they turned off was the use of hotspot.
I called Verizon and they simply enabled the use of hotspots again.
