Can you confirm you claim earlier you could NOT connect to an iPhone hotspot? If so, I suspect the iPhone and ISP router are creating 5 GHz access points and therein lies the problem. You can test this easily on the iPhone by toggling between 2.4 and 5 GHz mode... the knob is intended for idiots and thus labeled poorly like "ensure compatibility" or something but that's what it does...
