Hello all,
I have Tmobile iphone 5, and i got unlimited data, there is a personal Hot spot included if you have unlimited dataplan, but they have a cap upto 2.5 GB.

Is it possible to by pass that? if i got Jailbroken iphone and with miwi or some other tethering app ?

please help...
Thanks:confused:
 
I had T-Mobile for about a week; things didnt work out since I travel often (driving) and coverage outside the city was, for the most part non-existant. I was able to tether (using TetherMe) on my 5s. I used about 4 gb during the week that I had it (while I was actually home) with no issue, however once I hit 5gb my speeds were slowed down to almost unusable (I had the 30.00 walmart plan that had 100 mins, unlimited text and unlimited data, with the first 5gb at lte speeds).
 
Tmobile tethering possible ?

I really do love tmobile and what they're all about but service in my apartment is horrible. Once I step outside, wonderful blazing fast LTE. I had the $30 plan but could not get it to tether. I got on Att prepaid and I'm much more happier that I have service everywhere. Tethering with MyWi is flawless.

But the whole IDEA here is to tether more then 2.5GB which Tmobile officially allow to tether. I am wondering if I jailbreak my Iphone 5S and Buy miwi ($20 worth ) then would I be able to tether more then 2.5Gb or in some case 5GB.
Would tmobile know if I tether using MiWi.
I just don't want to buy Miwi if I cant tether more then 5GB.
Any body has tried..??
Please let me know..Thanks

It's a risk you take when tethering. One persons 'success' at tethering a bunch may not work for another and they get throttled etc. If you want peace of mind just get an verizon unlimited data line, jailbreak and tether to your hearts content like I do :)
