Has anyone successfully tethered the 9743G to an iPhone or iPad Hotspot?

Received a reply from Tempo Australia today acknowledging it is not a signal strength issue.

They suggested it could be a fault with the tablet and to return for repair via Aldi. I am not sure how the tablet could connect to other hotspots and not connect to iPhone/iPad hotspots unless there was a generic configuration issue.

The question is now whether to return the tablet to find this is a generic problem which will probably never be fixed due to the small number of units in the market. Or should I risk going down the rooting path and try to fix the problem myself? Or return for refund?

I had the same problem trying to connect my asus tf700 to my daughter's iphone5 and her boyfriend's iphone4. I asked asus about it and they said there could be a compatibility issue. I was able to use a windows htc phone as a hot spot. Anyone see a common issue here? Apple likes to play with their own ball on their own field.
