Does your cell phone carrier support personal hot spots? If so, have you setup the local hot spot on the iPhone, and then entered the WiFi info in the laptop?
My laptop sees wi-fi who is going from iphone. I'm trying to connect but stil nothing. I'have contract number 3 store. all-data-eat internet. Sorry for my bad english 🙂
And also another phones can connect to my wi-fi who is going from iphone
If you have the iPhone setup as a personal hot spot, you need to enter the name of that wireless network and password in the laptop. If you have any special settings, such as security or port numbers, those need to be entered also.
I entered password on my laptop , and I see Acquiring network address. Hmmm . Where I can check security or port numbers?
When you created the personal hot spot, did you select a security protocol, such as WEP, or WPA, or WPA2? If so, does your laptop wireless card support that protocol? You haven't said what kind of laptop you are using and what wireless capability it has so this is guess work right now.
When I turning on hot spot , they automaticly on WPA2 .
And your laptop is WPA2 capable?
Perhaps delete the network from the laptop, and then re-enter the network information and see if it will attach.
how I can change protocol? on hotspot , please help Ralph 😉
I am not sure you can change the security setting on the iPhone itself. Following are some useful documents:

The last one has a number of tips to try if you are not succeeding in connecting.
