Please do not tell me this is a feature request and dismiss it, because it's NOT a feature request. I've already been able to join online servers over LTE before, but when I try to now, it tells me I have to be on Wi-Fi. What does it matter? As long as you have an internet connection at all, either the IP address works, or it doesn't.

Please think about bringing back servers using cellular connection : add it as an option or something, I have unlimited data over 4G so it's very annoying we can't use it anymore :/

Exactly what I was thinking! I didn't want to say it though, because I didn't want to seem rude.... Why not just have a message warning users that they are on a cellular connection? That way people will know that MCPE will use data. Maybe you could do some kind of experiment to make an estimate as to how much data it will use, then put that data consumption rate in the message as well.
P.S. - Nice bear! 🙂 <3
