Mobile Hotspot Feature no longer works while roaming in Mexico
My wife and I subscribe to the One Plus plan. This gives us 5gb a month to use while roaming in Mexico/Canada. For the past 4-5 years that we've had this plan, it has worked great. We live in San Diego, CA and cross into Tijuana/Rosarito/Ensenada often. In the past month or 2, we have been unable to hotspot to our daughters' tablets while roaming south of the boarder. We roam on Telcel and data on our phones works great. We normally get speeds in the 30-50mb range. Our hotspot feature turns on on the phones and the tablets "connect", but no data is carried through. We can hotspot successfully once we cross back into San Diego and connect back to Tmobile's network. Has something changed recently on T-Mobile's end that hotspot is no longer allowed while roaming in Mexico/Canada? We both use Nokia 7.2 phones running Android 11 and our daughters use Samsung Tab A tablets also running Android 11. Attached is a screenshot of my TM useage.Re: International Roaming Not Working
I live in San Diego, CA and cross into Baja (Tijuana, Rosarito, Ensenada) very often. The 128kbps is good for WhatsApp and sending emails. That's about it. I actually got the upgrade for international data at 256k. It's a bit more useable. I do run out of the 5gb of international data almost every month, then I get the 256k. I can actually stream on YouTube and use Facebook. Just not Netflix or anything like that.
