Picked up a Beryl with the hopes of USB tethering with my iPad Pro's cellular data plan. Despite "trusting" the Beryl, something about the connection dies before it can be established. Curious if anyone's come across this before?
System Logs, below. It looks like it "Caught signal 15" and exits before successfully establishing a tethering connection.
What Works
- Wireless Repeater with the same iPad & Beryl - Conclusion: Not a data plan issue
- USB Tethering with the Beryl & my iPhone (different cell carrier) - Conclusion: Not USB cable issue
Issue Hypothesis:
Something with the Beryl software/kernel isn't compatible with this iPad?
