Hello, I hope someone can assist me. Usually I look up solutions by searching online, but this one is proving difficult to resolve. I own a Lenovo ThinkBook equipped with an AX201 adapter. I rely on my mobile hotspot for all internet requirements at work. The hotspot functions perfectly with my laptop's Wi-Fi at home. However, at the workplace, I consistently can't connect via Wi-Fi to my phone's hotspot (same device and same machine). At work, the hotspot network appears in the laptop network list (Windows 11), then the Wi-Fi attempts to connect, but the network disappears afterward. Other PCs or laptops can connect to the phone's hotspot without issues, except for this Lenovo model. I've tried several approaches: uninstalling and reinstalling Lenovo-provided drivers, using Intel generic drivers, adjusting Wi-Fi settings according to online tips—still no success. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Operating system: Windows 11 Pro with all latest updates, plus driver updates from Lenovo and others.
