Hey guys,

I'm trying to tether my iPhone 5s's LTE to my Xbox one for online multiplayer. I have an unlimited data and use a hotspot for all my devices at home instead of getting a home internet service. And pull close to 40-50 Mbps download where I'm at. When I connect my Xbox to my phones hotspot using "tether me" it will work for a few minutes and drop the signal, and I get booted to the home screen. I believe the NAT type is strict but I don't know how to override that since its Verizon's lte. Maybe this isn't a possible thing to do with an Xbox?
 
Do you have it connected via USB to tether or is the phone broadcasting a WiFi signal for a Mobile Hotspot for your Xbox to connect to that way?

Did you try the keep broadcasting option?
