IOS 15.1 Tethering Wi-Fi not working

After upgrading to IOS 15.1 tethering via Wi-Fi for a gen 2 iPad mini isn’t working. Tethering in general is working for most devices, everything works perfectly fine on IOS 14. I can use tethering via Bluetooth and direct connection on the iPad for which Wi-Fi doesn’t function on IOS 15, which leads me to believe something in IOS 15 as far as backwards compatibility has been removed. Anyone else seeing this issue?

iPhone 11 Pro, iOS 15

Try forgetting and reinstalling the network connection in the ipad (settings, wifi) and resetting network settings in the hotspot provider phone .

(Settings, General, transfer or reset iphone etc.)
