It must be a local issue as I have used the hotspot feature on my S3 multiple times and have never had any issues. It could also be related to the unlimited plan but I don't see how moving to a different phone would fix that.
We use the Verizon Share Everything plan.
I originally thought it was a local issue also. Not much chance of it being a local issue though, as I do a good portion of the summer on Cape Cod, MA and all winter in Naples, FL. I have had problems with it at both locations and many places in between as we tour and travel between locations.
I have been told that they do push you down the priority list by tower on the unlimited plan when you reach two gigabytes, but I hadn't used it in a month, so I had close to no data usage at the time.
My only goal with this post was to make people aware that, according to Verizon, there is a know issue with using the S3 as a hotspot on Verizon's network.
