Q: internet not working from hotspot
Hello, I have an iphone SE, the mobile data on it works just fine.
The wifi connectionn on my macbook works on every network i connect it to, same goes for the iphone SE.
When i create a hotspot from my Iphone SE the Macbook connects to it but has no internet acces. While the Macbook is conected to the hotspot the iphone has a working internet connection.
I do not get any error messages....How do i find out what is not working
Thank you.
MacBook (Retina, 12-inch, Early 2015), OS X El Capitan (10.11.4)

You say the internet does not work. I am guessing this means you use your browser and it fails.
Have you tried other apps? For example, in the Mail app, can you use Mail's menu to go to Window > Connection Doctor and determine you have a valid connection?
Have you tried System Preferences > Network > Assist Me?
