Hi,

I'm having issues with connecting to my iphone's hotspot. It's simply not always visible. If I leave the computer and let it idle for an hour i.e. iphone's hotspot is not on the list anymore and I have to reconnect (turn it off and back on). Same thing happens if I restart Macbook, I can't see my hotspot, while other's phone hotspots are visible. ?
I'm using wifi connection - bluetooth is not working (it appears and after it's connected, disappears immediately) but I already found on forum that's being resolved and the solution is not found yet.

It never happens with my old iphone and old macbook pro 2011. I started to have issues after changing to brand new equipment...
Not to mention that bluetooth hotspot worked flawlessly on my previous hardware. Now even wifi does not work as it should.
What's wrong here, anyone knows where the problem is

Macbook Pro 2021 m1, Iphone 12mini


thanks

But why truning it off and on again....? it should stay on all the time and be visible.
