Help 3G Mobile Hotspot - Allowed users only

[Vinsanity93]

How exactly do I add devices to the allowed users list? I tried to connect my ipod touch and a notification came up and said a device wanted to connect. I pressed the notification and it brought me to the manage users screen but the options were greyed out.

Some people have said you must enable it through verizon first since it is a paid feature...other people claim to have been using the 3G Mobile Hotspot without setting it up with verizon first and therefor getting it free...does anyone have more information on this?

Verizon is charging $15-20 for the service. Before you can allow any other device to use the 3g wifi mobile hot spot on your phone you have to first pay Verizon for it.
I found a thread here that gives you detailed information on how to bypass all this and get it for free. I did it yesterday & have been using it every since. Works perfectly. Good luck

Here is the thread I found it in. Easy enough steps, took less than 5 minutes and I was rolling. Good Luck.
