Root WiFi hotspot

Hello,

I have the basic $60 unlimited data plan with Metro PCS. I had to trade in my MS770 which had free unlimited hotspot with this same plan.
I'm new to programming / editing phones, but have a better an average knowledge of computers.
Really, I'm only looking to replace the roll my MS770 played to provide hotspot of my gaming phone and laptop.
If I have to root - OK... Please post me the link. (Yes, I can see the ones posted here).

Currently still on factory settings.
Kernel 3.10.49
Build LRX22G
software MS34510b

So I'm greatful for any sort of walkthrough and advice.
Just to be clear, I want to set my MS345 as a hotspot for other devices.
 
I'm not talking about the 5GB for $5 or $15... I have unlimited data plan, which my MS770 was able to use. Unless all I need to do is alter a setting.
 
But does the tether pull from the regular data plan?

I was told about an app "FoxFi" has anyone had experience working with it?
 
One movie from Netflix and those 6GB are toast. I want it on my data. Again, I'm looking to copy the function my MS770 had...
 
I have to $40 unlimited with the hotspot. I bought the phone and that was the promo they were running. I paid the bill and its now $50 with hotspot. I called metro and that's the new plan. I was under the other one. Anyways WiFi tether root has always worked for me. To me it pulls data yet doesn't eat it all up like the stock hotspot. Metro piece of %%%#

You should be able to get grandfathered in at your original price - unless you got notice or gapped service. When you call - tell the first that you call that you need to be "expedited" to a supervisor... First rule in most customer service positions is finish all contact at their level. Which a level 1 CSR is not going to be able to do for you. Worse that happens is your told "no" again.
 
Is there a users guide for your app? I get connected with error read event log... But I get an error trying to open the log - says file does not exist....
