network not allowing VPN connection via hotspot

I use a VPN to connect to my office network using my laptop. This works fine over WiFi. When I access the Internet via my iPhone 7 hotspot running iOS 13.4, my office network does not allow the connection. Any thoughts? Laptop is a Lenovo Win7 PC running Windows 10 Pro

Windows, Windows 6

I cannot connect my MacBook Air to the Internet using Personal Hotspot I have a 2017 MacBook Air running Catalina 10.15.3 and an iPhone Xs running ios 13.3.1. I have Personal Hotspot activated and can connect to it from my MacBook Air. I cannot, however, connect to the Internet using that connection. I have another MacBook Air and it is able to connect without problem through my iPhone using Personal Hotspot. I have tried restarting both the iPhone and the MacBook Air, turning WiFi on and off on both the iPhone and MacBook Air, resetting the network. All to no avail. My problem is not connecting to my iPhone through Personal Hotspot. It is connecting to the Internet on this one machine through Personal Hotspot. Help would be much appreciated!
