Not sure if this is the correct place to ask, but I'll try anyways. Here's a problem I have been facing for quite a few days Whenever I try to use my mobile hotspot from my windows laptop, it produces some weird results. - Windows appends a number "2" to the hotspot name when it displays it. - Windows says it is connected to the hotspot and shows the full signal strength symbol - My phone says that there are no devices connected - On my laptop, I can access only some sites. For example Google stuff and YouTube work perfectly normally. But stuff like GitHub and a few others don't. I do not lnow of any distinguishing features between these sites - My photoshop randomly asks me to save my file before quitting, in the middle of my work. There is no option to cancel, only "save" and "don't save" [image for reference](https://i.imgur.com/OrFOh57.jpg) All of these are limited to windows, and I have not encountered any of them on Linux (dual booted on the same laptop). Also no issues like these occur at all when I am connected to the house WiFi. ### Details: Laptop - Asus vivobook X510U, intel i5-8250u Intel dual band wireless AC 8265 Windows 10 v1909 Linux- Pop OS 20.04 Mobile- Samsung galaxy m30s Android 10, oneUI 2.0
