Hotspot issue. iphone 11 ios 15.1/14" Macbook pro (2021) running Monterey 12.0.1

I have an iphone 11 running ios 15.1 and a new 14" Macbook Pro running Monterey 12.0.1. I can connect to my personal hotspot but then get a "You are not connected to the internet" message. The iphone hotspot *is* working - I can connect to it perfectly using my iPad and my Razer Blade Stealth. It's only my Macbook that can't get data.

MacBook Pro 14″, macOS 12.0
