Hi There,
Trying to use my Iphone hotspot out and about and it will not show on my wifi settings on my laptop. Have tried running network adapters troubleshooter and switching airplane mode on and off again on both devices. I can connect to other iphone hotspots on the laptop and my hotspot shows for other laptops. Any advice?

iPhone 14, iOS 16
I connected using bluetooth. I turned it on on both devices and connected the laptop to the iphone. Then I went to 'bluetooth and devices' on my laptop and the devices were displayed on the screen. On the picture where the iPhone was shown, I clicked on the three dots and selected 'connect to a personal short-range network'. On the bottom right of the screen, where the Wi-Fi icon would normally be, a different image is now displayed, but the internet is working for me.
I'm from Croatia, so I hope I've translated the names into English well.
Hey Guys ! I found the fix !
Go to your Personal Hotpsot settings and toggle the "Allow others to join" , switch it off and then switch it on .
When you switch it on , you get this option to enable hotspot over wifi OR bluetooth/USB . Select Wifi and then it will show up on your laptop
I found a fix for this:
Your iPhone network should now appear when you search for WI-FI networks. You will have to type in your WI-FI password again.
