Do you use the VPN on your ipad or the graphenos phone with the Hotspot? Hotspot is pretty much never routed through any VPN since no app on your phone is allowed to intercept the traffic.

Afaik it's possible to set up with root permissions, but you will need third party software to do so.

Check to make sure your hotspot traffic is actually going over the VPN? I would bet it isn't.

Do you have location services turned on? Or perhaps something weird with the Sling app permissions
