hotspot throttling - General Questions and Answers

Can I bypass hotspot throttle on the revvl 5G ?

No. It's a tariff issue.

Does the XA ping the network to see if you have a hotspot plan before enabling tether

I have cricket, and I used to have the Xperia C4 and it didn't ping the network to check for a hotspot plan, so it let me freely use it. So I was wondering if anyone (who has cricket on the unlimited plan preferably) knows if it pings the network to check for a hotspot subscription before I go to buy this phone?
Thanks!

Freedom Mobile Firmware Update -LTE Live 55 Down, 36 Up!

Worth the wait, pretty incredible to be honest. Got almost 56mb/sec down, over 36 up with Speed Test app.
Did you switch to their LTE plan?

Yes, I did a few weeks ago.
I was hoping I would be able to connect to the LTE network without the LTE plan, just not get the LTE speeds, but apparently they do not allow you to register on the LTE network at all without the proper plan. I checked in field test by forcing phone to be in LTE Only mode and I do see Band/BW: B66 / 15MHz, EMM state: DEREG, Sub State: ATTACH_NEEDED. I wish they could just give a $5/mo add-on to enable LTE on any existing plan.

Question about ATT and Hotspot

Anyone confirm if the hotspot throttles after 18gb on ATT network? I currently have a Xiaomi and it doesn't throttle because ATT can't see if I'm using my hotspot it only shows data not how it's being used.

Question Rooted A32 5g Hotspot question

Has anyone rooted the A32 5g with the intention on using it as a hotspot so you can bypass your carriers hotspot limit?
Or has anyone rooted this and used the rooted hotspot?
Just looking to get an idea of speeds and connectivity.
I hacked an old Nighthawk M1, but speeds don't get up to 5G and it's spotty. Looking for a better Solution and the A32 5g is cheap.
Thanks
Im working on a magisk module for this.
And on a custom kernel for the a32 for this same purpose
Just wanted to updated you.
Compile the tweaked kernel and
I managed to deadset the TTL to 65. So speeds should not be a problem
Hotspot uses device data not hotspot data.
Also that M1 might need imei repair for the good speeds

Are you succesfully rooted A32 5G?

$20 AT&T Tablet Plan, APN Setting, Hotspot Speeds, and Switching IMEI Numbers

I activated an S2 tablet on a $20 unlimited plan through ATT. Then I put that same SIM into a Netgear LM1200 modem
Everything is working fine except the speed. Both my work-provided hotspot (different sim) and my LM1200 are using the ATT Broadband APN and only get about 20Mbps down. But on my S20+ phone (different sim) using 'enhancedphone' APN I get 100Mbps down
It's worth noting that if I try to use this APN with my lm1200 it won't connect. Can anyone help me understand why my Phone and hotspots see drastically different speeds? Is it all because of the APN? If so, could I work around this by 'repairing' the IMEI on my modem to match a similar Samsung S20 so that the carrier would allow those higher speeds?
There is a good amount I do not understand about how carriers split traffic and determine speeds, so I am appealing to the experts here.
I have a dual wan wired router, using spectrum cable as the primary. So I'm only looking for LTE to be a backup during an outage. But I'd like to have around 100Mbps if possible
