Tethering not working on AR300M with Galaxy S10

Hello, I’ve been using an AR300M for maybe six months now and it’s been working great. Recently I upgraded from the Galaxy S8 plus to the Galaxy S10 plus and I’m no longer able to get tethering to work. I can plug in the phone via USB C and enable tethering on the phone, but when I press Connect on the router page it spins for a bit and then gives the error “Error connection failed! Please check if hotspot is enabled on your phone or modem”.

I can connect using the tethering option when connecting an iPhone and with a USB hotspot, but the Samsung Galaxy S10 won’t connect. I’ve tried three different good quality USB C cables (two Samsung cables and one Anker cable) to no avail.

I can use my phone tethering to my computer just fine (using the connection to type this now). So the problem appears to be a compatibility issue between my phone and the AR300M.

Router is currently on the stable firmware (3.19 I believe). I tried uploading the test firmware .tar file from GL.iNet download center but it gives an error.

Can anyone confirm if they can tether using these two devices?
