Default Wireless Tethering for Nexus 4

Hello,
I have tried to use the built in wireless tethering on the Nexus 4 for T-Mobile, but it seems that they have blocked it. Is there any other way I can tether the Nexus 4 on T-Mobile?

Thanks

How is it blocked? It works for me on T-Mobile but it sometimes takes a few minutes to start working once I enable it.

I'm also on tmobile and the wireless tethering works fine, the only problem is, it takes a while about 3-5 min for it to fully connect and have internet. If you don't wait, the connection will show limited access.

Nevermind, its working now. I don't know why it wasn't working before. It used to say limited connection only.

I thought you were going to say that you got the upsale message for not having a tethering plan!

My t-mobile tethering is working fine. Connects within 1 minute and I can watch Netflix on my tablet easy. I like how t-mobile network is faster than my home cable internet.
