Hello ii_Meow.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. It looks like when you attempt to connect to your Personal Hotspot, it shows up listed as a "Hidden Network", when you connect to it via your iPhone's settings. You'd like to know how to make it unhidden.
This might have to be adjusted on the accessory or router you're using for your Personal Hotspot. Please check out the resource below:
Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points - Apple Support
Review the section under "Hidden network". It provides more information about hidden networks. If you're using a specific accessory or router to share internet access, you might have to disable it from that specific accessory. If you're not familiar on how to make changes to that accessory, you might have to reach out to the manufacture for help.
We hope this information is useful. Cheers.
